Always and forever

Grief is a fickle fellow
He pays his visits
unannounced
at odd moments

Today I saw your picture   
And my heart cried out in pain
You and I were young again
Always and forever friends
I saw our time together
I thought of what I'd say
if only I could reach you
Surely not for you I weep
But for the love so sorely missed
For all that might have been
I grieve, but not in vain
for the One who bore my griefs
takes every tear unto Himself
gives me comfort, hope and peace
I am free to celebrate
who you were, the love we shared
so glad you were in my life.
Till we meet again.......

I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you...John 14:18
