To see you again

You held my hand and walked me through the woods
Told me stories by the candlelight..
Your eyes twinkling as you read stories of yore
I sat in rapt attention, lost in the sound of your voice.

The meals we shared..all the times we laughed..
For everytime I held your hand..for eveytime I shared your joy;
I can't believe I won't see you again.
I keep holding onto your hand, your fingers in mine.
And time can't take that away.

I had my heart set on happiness.
Now, a fist clenching my insides
Sinks down my vitals
and I can hardly breathe.
My heavy heart wears me down,
And I'm not allright.

His ways I don't understand,
and I don't even try.
It is His to give and His to take away.
And I can only look back.

I'll just rest my head at His heart.
Lay my hurt on His shoulder.
I'll just be held in His arms.
Entwine my fingers with His,
and live under the shadow of His wings.
