If i could will my heart to stop
and breathe a final breath
i'd sit beneath an old oak tree
and trade my life for death
The pain in life of losing you
is more than i can bear
how can a man be happy when
his better half's not there
Life's meaning's gone when i lost you
no purpose can i find
for you were but the reason i
loved life and cherished time
i cannot will my heart to stop
i'm waiting for the sign
from God to show His mercy to
unite us one more time
I wrote this after my wife, Charlene (Char), passed away a few months ago. My world was and is destroyed. Take advantage of pain and turn it into beauty.
