Reflections
Reflections
By Joeysguy
When my kids were young they would run around
You always new where they were just by the sound
Someone would bring home a dog or a cat
One daughter even had a pet rat
With everything my wife was at my side
Until that horrible day that she died
I’m looking at a picture, that was our wedding day
I can’t remember all of the words we did say
This picture shows our marriage sealed with a kiss
My tears are a reminder, I will never again have this
With my wife gone and my kids grown
My dogs are gone and I live alone
I wish my wife walked through the door
So I could hold her and kiss her once more
In my house I’m always seeing a figure
It can look smaller but it’s never bigger
I see this figure in every room
It looks at me with the face of gloom
I’ve seen this figure just a short time in my life
Tell me figure are you my wife
The figure speaks and I know this voice
Figure your not my choice
The figure is in everything that has a shine
It’s a reflection that is always mine
