I sat at your grave today....

I sat at your grave today

Kneeled and prayed

And for a short while I stayed

Whispered gently your good name

Into the wind I saw it carried away

Did you hear my heart quiver?

What are the scars that remain

In those tears that come so often?

Grand babies want to hug you

Watch you smile as you sing

Oh won’t you please tap your wing

Upon my shoulders?

Our home misses you

I’ve not felt pain like this before

For the melody you left behind

Keeps on playing in the rooms

Of quiet still hours

Etched into the walls

Only I can hear

I miss you

Don’t you know?

I did not want to leave

Left more then prayers at your grave today

More of my soul then ever before

And much more then a tear

My heart

♥
