One More Day
No one will ever know how much I miss you.
Not a day goes by that I don't wish I could kiss you,
The emptiness at times is unbearable.
My thoughts wander back to the days of young,
watching you dress and prepare for a night out on the town.
Your long black curls to me were your crown.
I remember thinking how pretty you looked,
all dressed up and ready for dancing. You never
wore silks or satin and lace and you never owned
a string of pearls,
But to me you were all the world!!
What was once happy times, now make me frown.
My memories take me back to when you and I were one,
with thoughts and feelings that could not be undone.
They were unknown to others but we were one.
No longer having you here, I feel so alone,
My connection to you is no longer something shared,
It's as if there is no one to care.
I miss your smile, and your wisdom of words,
but most of all I miss your touch.
The softness of your hands when they rubbed my pains away,
the gentleness they gave each and everyday.
What I wouldn't give to have you back.
If there just was a way.
Some people say I'm wrong to feel the way I do,
but if given the choice,
I'd just as soon be with you.
I know I'm not really alone in this world,
and I know the things I should do.
But I get so lost without my
guidance from you. You were my rock and my strength,
there was nothing I couldn't do.
They say one day we'll all be together,
I can only hope that this is true,
and I look forward to spending
everlasting days with you.
