A sad time

You know that it’s a sad day
When someone you love goes away
When she’s left, and gone above
To watch over us, with all her love
You know that it’s a sad week
When your legs start to feel weak
Because she is no longer here
And now, more than ever, you want her near
You know the last 30 days were sad
When they turned out to be this bad
All along, I knew she had to go
And I’m sorry it was so painfully slow
You know that it’s a sad year
When the falling of tears is all you hear
You know that it’s a sad time
When I can only speak in rhyme
And I can only hope she’s well
‘Cause her last year was living hell
And every single tear I cry
Makes me wish it was all a lie
But painfully I know it’s true
And there’s nothing left for us to do
And God I do not understand
But I will try to follow your plan
And I do pray that she is glad
Because her passing is oh so sad
You know that it’s a sad time
When I can only speak in rhyme
I know I’ll miss her, and that’s it then
Until, in heaven, we meet again
