A
Mothers Prayer
An emptiness that I now feel,
since you left I love you
still.
For you the pictures I have
drawn,
but my pain goes on and on.
I miss you now, but your with
God
And I know your near
Listen as I pray at night,
for you will always hear.
If I had one wish come true,
My only wish would be for
you.
To hold you in my arms once
more,
Tell you I love you, forever
and more.
And now my son if I may near,
Im saying that I love you
dear
with all my loving heart,
I'll
never forget you,
I loved you from the start!

~When
Tomorrow Starts Without Me~
When tomorrow starts without
me,
and I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and
find your eyes,
all filled with tears for
me;
I wish so much you wouldn't
cry,
the way you did today,
while thinking of the many
things,
we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
and each time that you think
of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without
me,
please try to understand,
that an angel came and called
my name,
and took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready,
in heaven far above,
and that I'd have to leave
behind,
all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
a tear fell from my eye,
for all life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
so much yet to do,
it seemed almost impossible,
that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love
we shared,
and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
just even for awhile,
I'd say good-bye and kiss
you
and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
that this could never be,
for emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly
things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when
I did,
my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through
heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled
at me,
from his great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
and all I've promised you"
Today for life on earth is
past,
but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
but today will always last,
and since each day's the same
day,
there's no longing for the
past.
But you have been so faithful,
so trusting and so true.
Though there were times you
did some things,
you knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven
and now at last you're free.
So won't you take my hand
and share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without
me,
don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of
me,
I'm right here, in your heart.
