Looking forward seeing
Also the past can bring pain
And sorrow as I stand by
And watch others making
The same mistakes
As I did once.
The mind holds firm
To words once spoken
Yet the heart is waiting
And able to forgive
And now the time has come
For the test of love to show
That family is above all other
Matters of the world
I come to you to say good-bye
As I know I will not have another chance
You meant the world to me
And even after you are gone
My heart shall still sting
As I realize there is no more
Time to say I love you
Time to say I’m sorry
I must let you go now
Into the arms of our Father
You brought joy in to my life
You showed me love and
Filled empty spaces in my heart
I will remember you forever
In my heart no matter where I am
I loved you then and I
Will always love you forever
Smile down upon me
As you sit at the right side
You are a good person
And I will feel the void forever.
