And The Years Go By...

And The Years Go By...

And the years go by

although there were days where I saw no end to the pain

here I stand different but the same.

And the years go by

and the earth continues to spin and spin

around the sun, day out day in.

And the years go by

as the grief remains, the loss grows too.

The pain growing strong but just as true.

And the years go by

making pain my friend, a welcome tie

to the the babe, the child and now teen with the green eyes. 

And the years go by 

and although I have learned to laugh once more  

I still hold the loss behind closed doors.

And the years go by

but time stands still just the same

remembering each moment as a lifetime, our love doesn't wane.

And the years go by 

        so I choose with each breath

                to honour your life.

                    and sing your song 

                            until my own death

                                        as

                                             the 

                                                   years 

                                                            go 

                                                                   by. 

Happy 14th on the 14th our sweetest Valentine.  You are forever our greatest gift of love.
