Neither stitches, bandaids, or surgery

Could mend the hole where you should be

My heart aches more with each passing day

Going over words that I had yet to say

Five more minutes is all I ask

But what I want is to change the past

More of you I wish I could see

So I could tell you what you meant to me

I want to hear you laugh again

I want to be with you all the way to the end

I want to sing with you to your favorite song

I want to stay up and watch movies all night long

I want to be so close that we fight

I want you then to tell me it will be alright

I want to know your deepest fears

I want to be your friend for countless years

I want to talk about things of above

I want to watch you fall madly in love

So many things that I never got to say

Most of these I didn't think of til today

But as I write, you are in God's arms

Singing His praises, safe from the way of harms

I know you're happy, but you're not here

And as I write I can't help but shed a tear

I post this poem for all to see

To help carry on your beautiful legacy
