I Never Imagined

I never imagined

What would lie ahead.

Sometimes it seems to take all I have

Just to make it out of my bed.

That dreadful day you left us

Still incinerated into my head.

Six months have gone and passed,

The days slip by in a blur.

Just when I think I'm okay,

The tears start to occur.

I think of all the memories,

And all the things that once were.

Although things on earth

Will never be the same,

I feel better knowing

It was the angels who came.

And it was by the great Lord

That your beautiful soul was claimed.

Like from the book of Psalm,

"Oh, that I had wings of a dove!"

My mind is at ease,

Knowing you are above.

And with the rest of my days

I'll remember you, with all my love.

Until the day

We shall meet again,

I will live my life to the fullest

And look forward to when

I finally see your lovely face,

And your unfaltering grin.
