Just One Day
If I could come back
just for one day
I know exactly what I
would say.
To my family and
friends, and those who I loved,
As a message from God
who speaks from above.
I would say it’s okay to
be sad for a while,
But what I really want
to most is to see you all smile.
And for you to go on and
live once again,
Allowing my memory to
comfort your pain.
I know you all loved me
with all of your heart,
And that none of you
wanted for me to depart.
I don’t quite understand
it all myself,
But I know you’ll get by
with a little bit of help.
Yes, I would say to be a
sad for a day
And to do what you need
to do.
And then lift up your
eyes
To the wonder of the
sky,
And I know that I loved
you all too!
A poem for my wife
.jpg)
You never said I’m leaving,
You never said goodbye,
You were gone before I
knew it,
And only God knew why.
And a million times I
needed you,
A million times I cried,
If love alone could have
saved you,
You would never have
died.
In life I loved you
dearly,
In death I loved you
still,
In my heart you hold a
place,
That no one could ever
fill.
It broke my heart to
lose you,
But you didn’t go alone,
For part of me went with
you,
The day God took you home.
