Why, Why and Why

I am so lost my love Weeping again and again I dream you could come back to me 'Cause I am sinking without you It is not my time to fly up I have living to do We had a whole life planned Now, oh I am missing you Every single moment Why, why and why Did this have to be Why, why and why Sad, sad my soul I am adrift my love A ship drifting without you We only had a few years Beautiful and so lovely So lovely Why, why and why Did God take you Why, why and why Did this have to be We had things to do Strolling on paths hand in hand In forests lush and green Watching sunsets at the beach Let me say it once more, why Forever I will wonder Why, why and why We should be growing old together ____________________________ May 8 , 2016 Poetry/Lyric/Why, Why and Why Copyright Protected, ID 16-787-899-0 All Rights Reserved.

Some losses you just can't completely recover from. The deeper it is, the more forever it becomes.

Does the pain ever end? I don't believe it does. There are triggers everywhere. These are signs of our past which we can never completely escape from. What a beautiful poet you are to deal with this subject in this way. May a beautiful wind blow in your direction and bring you the love from the forces of nature.

MY FRIEND, THIS IS A TRUE PLEASURE TO READ THIS FINE MORN. MY FAVORITE STANZA- "We had things to do Strolling on paths hand in hand In forests lush and green Watching sunsets at the beach" I REMEMBER THOSE TIMES IN MY YEARS AS A YOUNG MAN... SUPER 7 FOR THIS GEM..

A wonderful poem with amassing rhymes and rhythm of a gifted author.It seems like a dream waking up in another dream of serenity, hope and meditation on the multiple sense of why beginning with cause and aim and. Wonderful touching conclusion that may be continued in other dream as a new life together. I saw a movie Somewhere, sometimes...about such a new meeting.
