My heart has been ripped out,
With only remnants left behind.
I hold on to life,
Holding on to what’s kind.
I pray for the pain to end,
Waiting for my sweet memories
To begin, closing my eyes,
I find her inside, the love
Of my ‘Sweet Pea’ will
Never End.
The sunshine I feel is
The warmth of her hug,
Secure in my arms,
My little ‘Boo Bug’.
The gentle breeze I feel is
The soft touch of her hand,
Caressing my arms,
Without a demand.
The birds sing and it’s
her laughter I hear,
Closing my eyes
I know she is near.
The starlight above is
The twinkle in her eyes,
Looking down at me,
Saying goodnight.
