LOST TO ALL ETERNITY









~*~*~ So Lost With Out You ~*~*~








LOST TO ALL ETERNITY



As I stand alone by your lonely grave
My mind and sanity I try to save,
My tears are lost in this falling rain,
My whole being feels nothing but pain.


I often wonder why you left me
But we don`t have that choice you see,
God thought that you had suffered enough,
The path you had trodden was so rough.


He took you back and removed your pain,
I will carry the pain while I remain,
The loss is so great the ache goes on,
Since you`ve been gone the sun hasn`t shone.


I talk to you and you silently take it all in,
Doesn`t matter if it`s a kind deed or a sin,
You let me talk, hoping this will help me heal,
It can`t be true your gone, it seems so surreal.


You are constantly in my head and heart,
From these feelings and thoughts I cannot part,
They help to keep you close to me
I just wish now your face I could see.


I`ll bring you flowers and keep your grave neat,
I`ll stoop at your graveside or find a seat,
I wish I could hold you for one last time,
Take you in my arms and tell you you`re mine.


The wind blows around me as I stand and cry,
I don`t seem to notice but I inwardly sigh,
I long for the times of yester year,
Knowing I can`t have them brings another tear.


I come here often just to be near you,
My tears are many and my words are few,
Time hasn`t lessened my feeling of loss,
I`m not a rolling stone, I do gather moss.


If I let you go and moved my life on,
I`d have to realize you had really gone,
Don`t think I can ever really let you go,
You were my whole life to me, you know.


Thought I heard your soft voice on the gentle breeze,
It was only the rustle of wind in the trees,
Wherever I go I still look for you,
My loss never ending, my love for you still true.


We used to laugh together and have a joke,
It`s all gone now, so on my tears I choke,
These are the happy times together we had,
I should be grateful and not feel sad.


I mourn for what can never be again,
Losing you was such a bitter pain,
I don`t take things for granted any more,
Your leaving me has rocked me to the core.


I am going now but I`ll return soon
Just as sure as the night has a moon,
Your body lies here, but you`re in my heart,
While this continues, I can`t make a new start.
