How can this be

How can this be.

There is nothing left to see.

I’m left here feeling your absence.

Oh how can this be.

Everything feels so empty.

I just want to hold you close,

but you’re soul has been set free.

In your death, you took a part of me.

How can this be.

I’ll never see your face starring back at me.

I’ll never hear your voice,

or see the light in your eyes.

There is so much more to loss,

when someone you love dies.

How can this be.

God loves me so,

but he’s taken you from me.

Maybe it’s a lesson on appreciating time.

That we can’t rewind.

We all need to learn to be kind,

and let go of our pride.

In the end whatever we think we’re holding on to won’t be worth a dime.

How can this be.

It’s true you’re really gone.

My eyes can no longer see.

You’re free from your pain and your soul is free.

I can imagine you reunited with those who have gone before.

I can picture you grinning in pure delight.

Heaven must be a beautiful sight!

How can this be.

I really must say goodbye.

In my heart you’ll forever stay.
