Your Comforting Spirit
Although I can feel you in all that I do,
Tears and heartache slice through and through;
I feel I’m falling apart - How can this be?
Blinded by sorrow and emotions I can’t see.
A knife stabbing pain – I’m suddenly brought to my knees
Then I feel your comfort like a cool night’s breeze,
You’re here once again, in my arms to hold,
So full of warmth and no longer cold.
You look up at me with your smile so sweet
My frozen heart melts and is once more complete.
Loving calmness fills my body and soul
We’re together again and I am finally whole.
A tear of happiness slides down my cheek
My body starts to tremble - I feel so weak;
I close my eyes, take it all in, then I breathe
And once again realize, God called and you must leave.
Awakened by aching, more sadness is felt
I cry sweet tears from this heart throbbing welt
You came into my life, if only for a short while,
And surrounded me with the warmth of your smile.
Though I know the pain will never fully heal,
Your sweet memories make it possible for me to just deal,
I’ll never forget, through the pain, there is hope
And in due time, with God’s help, I will truly learn to cope.
Until we’re back together again, you are the light guiding my way
For you are deep in my heart, and that is where you’ll always stay.
