This morning when I woke up
and again, you were not here
I prayed you felt my arms
as they pulled you, oh so near.
I talked with you in silence
about the things we often forget
I prayed you heard my voice
and the words that my heart said.
I brushed your cheek with softness
and shared the love I feel for you
I prayed that in this hour of truth
your heart could feel me too.
This evening as I go to sleep
I'll pray that you are safe
In hopes that when we meet again
We'll rejoice that happy day.
