IN HEAVEN ABOVE

Though light years away
You are close in my heart
I cherish your memory
I have from the start.

So hard letting go
Like grains of sand
That pass through my fingers
Right out of my hands.

I try to hold on
Can’t bare losing you
I miss you so much
What am I to do?

So many tears
The heartache, the pain
Reliving the memories
Again and again.

The smile on your face
The look in your eyes
But, why…..why you?
I keep asking why.

How can I go on
Day after day
Without you beside me
Being so far away?

I look to the sky
To the moon and the stars
Believing I know
Where you went, where you are.

Beyond the clouds
In heaven above
You reside with the angels
You are cherished and loved.
