Remember the Fifth of November

I thought it'd be the end of my life today.

 

The end of the moments Id spend beside my son.

 

The end of my hopes that all of my mistakes would still be undone.

 

The end of a second chance of having a lifetime with him.

 

The end of shiny, happy moments with two dear friends was far beyond dim.

 

The end of my longing to have another conversation with my very best friend.

 

The end of a career that I spent most of my life to comprehend.

 

The end of a fathers wish to live beyond his daughter's life.

 

The end of a dream of becoming the perfect wife.

 

But I lived today so I believe that my purpose is yet to be fulfilled.

 

So God please help me with the relationships I have yet to rebuild.
