So why'd you have to leave me now,
this moment FAR too soon;
Your time on Earth but for a day,
from morning just till noon!

You lived your life so full of joy
in just a few short years;
These thoughts of you still bring a smile
yes, even through the tears!

You made the best of life itself,
could handle anything;
You keep me sailing high each day-
the wind beneath my wings!

Not sure how I will make it now,
I'm feeling oh so cold;
I feel I had you next to me,
just not so long ago!

I know you're with my Jesus now,
you're walking Heaven's shore;
Though I still miss you everyday,
I'm healing more and more!

I'll hold your memory close to me,
those hugs so full of love;
I'll see you soon when trumpets sound,
My Angel up above!

1

In guiltless times of love and war, take heed,
That all again the days will still flow.
As sun and moon did show on parched skies
That love will lead and war, recedes

2

In moonless nights of love and hate, take heed
That over all you win the twirling shadows
That wraps their fangs besides you
And hate will love do ****

3

In timeless skies of helpless days, take heed
That your inner strength eludes Misery's stench
That brings to you horrendous pasts
And over all, you win a hopeful war

4

In reckless acts of smile and tears, take heed
That your smile breaks the mauve feelings
Resting all the masking ruinings
And in all, you smile and laugh last
