Is this it?
Is this all that is left
When your loved one has died
Car keys, wallet, and checks

After decades of living
And memories made
A coffin or urn
Contains their remains

The special moments you hold there deep inside
Will eventually fade as your memory declines

Though others remember
And hold strong towards you
Eventually something
Will take their life too

God I’m trying to look forward
And live day by day
But inside my soul is crying
No peace to be made

This year will be four since the two of you went Home
I pray to join you, but not too soon
As I’m your only son
