PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Time passes by so quickly

And my grievance is so fresh

Not knowing where you are eternally

Just knowing you’re not here in the flesh



I cry often for you salty tears

Sometimes for many days

Daddy it’s been 10 short years

But my memories are fading away



I’m no longer a little girl

Asking about Heaven and Hell

I’m 21 and know the Lord

And I know what God’s Word tells



It took me a long time to realize

That you really were not perfect

Except for in my little girl eyes

Which your sins I did forget



But God bestows upon me comfort

And understands my grieving pain

He knows I’ll always hurt

Cuz with each year it feels the same



He knows I cry for you each year

On the same day as the one before

And when I shed these many tears

God comforts me even more



It hurts so much that you’re gone

Cuz my memories are fading away

And 10 years isn’t really that long

Because to God 1000 is only one day



Not knowing if you were saved

Makes the disparity flow

Your body’s in the grave

But where did your soul go?



I don’t have a lot of flashbacks

Of who you used to be

My mind just gets sidetracked

On your eternity



With each passing season

Jesus still continues to comfort

But no amount of human reason

Will ever take away the hurt



I only remember feelings

Of the love I felt for you back then

And that is still revealing

Whether it’s been one year or ten
