GOODBYE IS NOT FOREVER

 This one I wrote for a new friend I had met who had lost her son about the same time as I had lost mine.  There's always a silver lining amongst even the darkest clouds.  If you are grieving the lost of a loved one I hope this one offers at least a little comfort.  Be easy on yourself and remember Goodbye is not forever.




GOODBYE IS NOT FOREVER

Jesus wept.

Our Lord knows

The pain that is felt

When one we love goes,

But Goodbye is not forever!


Though the pain seems unbearable

As if no one understands

Our Lord knows

The pain that is felt

When a loved one goes.

But Goodbye is not forever!


At times it feels

Like your heart is being torn apart inside

When someone you love dies.

Our Lord knows!


Our loss is shared

By a Lord who cares

And who also knows

That Goodbye is not forever!


So call on Him.

He'll hold you close.

Go ahead and cry

Our Lord knows why.


It's love that overtakes us

Shakes us

Moves Us

And breaks us...


Our Lord knows it all!

Afterall...it was that same love

That moved him

To offer us His Son.

And it was that same love

That moved Him to die for us...


So WE can know...


Goodbye is not forever!
