Goodbye
All things must come to an end, even time.
And ours has arrived, so goodbye to you my mother
my friend, my partner in crime.
Your presence is so greatly missed.
I''m left with so many feelings, shock, disbelief,
sorrow, too many more to list.
I search for answers, demanding to know why you had to go.
Then I remember not to question the Lord,
His will is not always mine to know.
Besides you''d probably tell me "because he said so"
but it hurts so much to let you go.
I selfishly want you to return to me.
Knowing that''s not a possibility and that the place where you now may be.
I too, one sweet day will see.
My time will come when God sees fit.
And my children will experience these same emotions,
seated in this chair where I now sit.
It just doesn''t seem fair to those of us still living on.
To have to continue life now that you''re gone.
For now my only comfort is knowing that someday,
I''ll be with you once again.
Until then, remember goodbye doesn''t mean forever
I love you, my mother, my partner in crime my friend.
I believe God keeps the precious near, you are my precious pearl.
I''ll see you both in heaven, all faith in God,
forever your precious lil'' girl.
