Trying hard

They are my life from then to always
cherishing a love that will forever stay

although, we are physically apart
forever they will be in my heart

wishing so hard that they were near
I can't seem to fight back the tears

everyday apart seems like forever
but, I pray soon we'll be together

with everyday that passes by
I try so hard not to cry

doing all I can to stay sane
but having trouble masking the pain

everyday I miss them more and more
while bruising my knees from begging the lord

trying to make the passing time worth the while
but it is hard to not hear their laughs or see their smiles

I dream of them each and every night
never wanting to wake up because they are no longer in my sight

hurting as I try to make it through the days
Just getting through the hours is what I will continue to pray.
