Meggie's Song

by Marcy D. Norris
(Arizona, USA )

It seems like you were here just yesterday,
And today you are gone,
Why is life such a mystery...
Some lives are short and some are long?
Why couldn't I have given you half of my years?
Then we'd have stayed together untill the end...
I now have eyes that are filled with tears,
And a broken heart that will not mend.
My love for you is a glowing ember...
That burns so deep inside my heart.
Happiness I did surrender,
On that day we had to part.
When we finally meet up yonder
Joy will flood my heart again
Till then my mind will forever wander,
To the place where all my memories of you remain.
