Tired, sore eyes…
A tear stained face…
A grieving body…
Feeling displaced…
Lost in a world…
That can’t understand…
Her spirit is broken…
She misses his hand…
Haunted by the ghost…
Memories of her man…
He was taken too soon…
This wasn’t the plan…
Now left all alone…
She’s failing to cope…
She’s losing the will…
She’s lost all hope…
Not able to sleep…
Feeling so depressed…
Leaving her floating…
In a state of distress…
Wishing that death…
Would visit again…
Reach out his cold hand…
Take away all her pain…
And be finally reunited…
With her soul mate…
High above the clouds…
At Heaven’s golden gates…
Where she knows he’ll wait…
Until the end of time…
For her to join him…
At the end of her climb…
Up the long stairway…
At her journeys end…
That peaceful moment…
When she will ascend…
But until that time…
Where she will be free…
Her life’s stuck in limbo…
Full of loneliness and misery…
