Here's to our Spiritual Date

Here's to our Date


Sometimes I sit and wonder how I'll make it through the day.
Yet never in a million years, would I expect you'd want to stay.

I know the place you're in far outweighs this place.
But I can't begin to tell you how I long to see your face.

In my dream the other night, I got to hear your voice, and even though it wasn't real, I really did rejoice. I told you how much I missed you, and you said you missed me too.

That's all that I remember, but it's enough to get me through.
Then seeing the deer at your gravesite, caused me to smile, yet cry.

A sign that you are with me and are always standing by.
I wish we could have just one day to say all our good-byes. That's the part I struggle with and can't help wonder "Why?"

Why you had to leave me, which causes so much pain,
But baby, all the loss I feel, can't compare to Heaven's gain.

Because you prayed to accept our Lord, you arrived at Heaven's Gate,
And now I know that down the road, WE now have a date.

That's when I'll see you face to face and all the pain will leave,
Since we will be together, no longer will I grieve.

So I will keep on going, because I know you'd want me to. I'll
try my best to make you proud,

Till I'm once again with you.
