He made her laugh...

Up and down move our feet

one step at a time.

Tomorrow and tomorrow again,

we step forward without you.

A backward glance

a chance you may be following

close behind. Have we lost

our collective mind?

This is not true, this life--

endless life--without you.

Where did you go? Oh, we

know, smile and nod

"He's gone to God" we say

we pray and wonder

why. Why did you die

and leave us all behind?

We sigh and cry

too many tears, wondering.

Was it worth it to know you

to love you to lose you?

Was it worth all this

endless pain? Of course,

we say. And we would

in a heartbeat

do it all again.

Done
