Another Day

by wyteboy

The night before my 18th birthday I was yours to hold a kiss to your lips sealed the deal for a story to unfold and then I’m walking out your door I paused for a moment just to say I’m glad that I met you and I hope to see you another day Three years later I've got your hand and were still doing fine I broke your heart but never again will I be so blind and as I tucked you into bed I took a moment just to say I’m glad that I met you and I hope to see you another day Ten years pass and we’re wondering why we’re still together the days are cold, nights are colder with dreams of another as I grab my bags to leave I paused just to say I’m glad that I met you and I hope to see you another day Now were getting older and we can’t help remembering the memories we had even though we've both found someone new we can’t help but be sad and as you listen to my last voice message you start to cry when I say I’m glad that I met you and I hope to see you another day You come to visit and tell me that you can’t live without me by your side and you see im still wearing the ring you gave me and that our love had never died as we walk down that isle again I hold your hand then I say I’m glad that I met you and I hope to see you another day As we both find it harder just to get ourselves out of bed im right there by your side putting kiss after kiss upon your head and then you stare into my eyes and I quietly say I’m glad that I met you and I hope to see you another day Waiting in the hospital day after day im so nervous I can’t sleep when the doctor says there’s nothing left to do I fall down and weep as the last breaths come streaming out of your lungs you hear me say I’m glad that I met you and I hope to see you another day Now as im the only one to show up at your funeral in the rain I took the time to read you a poem and it caused me so much pain I cried for so long pacing back and forth at the foot of your grave I loved you with all my heart you were my reason to be so brave as my last tear falls down my cheeks I hope you hear me when I say I’m glad that I met you and I hope to see you another day.
