Any Day Now Who would have thought seven years later I'd still be searching for you And, still barely I make it through one day I don't walk in this world with a smile that is real For, the heavens took my entire life away... Any day now, I keep waiting for those sweet birds to sing Dad, how awesome they will sing in your name They'll sing your melody of loving us when you were here on earth So, any day now, I wait for the welcome change... I don't want to sleep beneath the moon if you aren't there, too And, I don't want to live alone beneath this sky Dad, I'm lost to the moment and hour that you had to leave For, my memories are the only connection between you and I... I just have to believe any day now you will be home For, I breathe nothing but wanting our family again You've touched the hearts beyond what an angel could do My every day, all day prayer, for my any day now to begin... I don't know if I can walk the same road you used to And, find myself happy that I followed you there I should be grateful I moved along in your shadow, Dad But, I die a little more when I'm faced with you everywhere... There isn't a place I don't see your sweet silhouette at my side And, wishing I had more time to hold a little longer to you And, so what if I die, all I do is cry Just ask God, for me, to come get me, too... Sauni Sauni :) |

Oh, this aches tremendously. Very vivid write with phenominal description. Somehow, we have to find the strength to go on. I know it isn't easy, but we have to try. Powerful write. All writing comes |

Saunni~ Loving and longingly sad~ His memories are beautifully recalled in the shadows of your thoughts. *Hugs*, sweetie~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

I don't long to have my Dad back on earth, but certainly miss him. I hope your pain will also fade. "I am not now that which I have been." |

I know this feeling as well my friend. . . from your heart. . .  ---------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
