The One Who Meant The Most

Talking to myself when I'm alone Sitting in this place I call home Wondering what I'm living for I always thought life would hold much more Working everyday just to make ends meet Believe me, it's no small feat It seems the more I try The harder it is to get by I don't drink because I can't afford booze This isn't the life I thought I'd choose It seems to get tougher everyday Having to live my life this way But I'll continue on as I do In so many ways I'm not like you I don't have money to buy a car I've never seen a falling star So therefore I can't make a wish To get out of this abyss Trust me that if I could Making changes, I surely would I always thought, my life would change That somehow I could rearrange The pieces of the puzzle that is my life But, everything changed when I lost my wife You see, she meant the world to me She could always make me see That regardless of all the bad We should always be thankful for all we had She calmed my world with her touch I love and miss her so very much Now, I'm hoping it won't be long Till I'm where I belong That is right by her side No more tears need be cried 11-12-18/RjH
