twas a year before Christmas
and i finally had enough money to move on out
stayed with a friend
till i could gain a little more cha ching
now i had gain more than enough
friends told me
spend it on party's
spend it on some new things
see what life has in stores
till then i thought and thought
of her
my after high school sweet love
many years has passed
i never thought she would remember me
but i traveled, i asked, i searched
in my search i ran across
to a computer
i remembered her email
and she appeared to be on line
so we sat in front of our screens
how much she misses me
she could never stop typing
for that moment i signed out
my time limit was up
and i sat there and thought
and i thought and i thought
she didn't forget me
she told me over and over
how she prayed how she wished
how she missed how she cryed
how she was happy
we spoke to each other again
i showed up at her house
to find she wasn't home
so i sat in her yard
in the spot we had our first kiss
the wind blew across my lips
the birds sang
oh how i missed that sweet song
the neighbors yelled and
the kids played outside
not much has change
no not much at all
twas the year before Christmas
and we finally seen eye to eye
tears ran down her beautiful face
as she screamed my name
with tears down her face
to inside we went
only to see
every picture we took
was hanging up on her walls
every email i sent
was printed out put into picture frames
a romantic supper we shared
the phone calls we didn't hear
i asked her
may i read this poem for you
her eyes so big
her face so red
her eyes so full of tears
i read her my poem
it was called
twas a year before Christmas
and we met this special night
i gave her a ring
a special ring
it was silver all around there was no gold
she got the hint
i was purposing to her
her face lit up
the stars in the sky
turned a yellow gold
she put it on her finger
and said I Do
around the ring it said
P.S I Love You
twas the year before Christmas
and she passed away
with a thing called
lung cancer
