Now I Understand
She went through it all Aneurism, stroke, and countless operations But stayed so strong and graceful while preparing for her eternal visitation I wish you could have seen it… We fed off of her energy all the way until her last gasp of earthly air But that last breath was the one that was hardest to bare She was like a dying flower that gave her last bit of oxygen to those around her Making us stronger and more appreciative Appreciative of life and what it means She stayed focused and never let the devil intervene Soulful, cheerful, and full of love But the Lord made a call, a call for his special dove She set flight, to never return Now I understand that neither birth nor death is easily earned We joke, we laugh, we hurt and we cry But we all know that one day, we too must die But when I lye down and say my prayers I know I have an angel on my team upstairs She's no longer here in her human form And still today I have a heart half torn Torn from knowing that she left here early I miss the hugs, kisses, pinches and her hair half curly There are several things that I miss about her Which makes me wish things could be now, how they were But I know the real reason, she left this earth It's because God had a spot open in Heaven for a new birth!!!
