We thought of all the yesterdays, The good ones and the bad, The thought of all the love we shared, And all the fun we had. If we could relive yesterday, Just even for a while, We'd say good-bye and kiss you And maybe see you smile. But then we fully realized, That this could never be, For emptiness and memories, Would take the place of us. And when we thought of worldly things, we might miss come tomorrow, we thought of you, and when we did, Our heart were filled with sorrow Heaven awaits with Rose and Buffy. Blessings and love,Fel and MaryAnn
