29 AND HOLDING
Back in 69’ was when I first felt your presence.
I can still see you coming through the door,
And suddenly your presence came over me,
I never was the same anymore.
I’ve carried you with me
As though you were mine to keep,
Unaware of the years and tears
That I’d have to weep.
Through the years I’ve had heartaches,
They passed with time they’re put to rest.
But in my quietest moments,
Our memories put me through the test.
But only in my quiet moments
Can I think these thoughts.
For I know the heartaches
That can be bought.
I’ve always loved you
And I always will,
But since you left me
My heart can’t be still.
My heart still feels the warmth
Though left out in the cold.
My hands still reach out for yours,
As though they are there to hold.
29 Years and holding
Onto a gift from up above
Given but just a moment
To capture eternal love.
