Bearing Over Whelming Pain
by
Candy Clontz Rathbone

If one
single moment could last forever,
there's one I wish we could have kept.
Was the moment I had your love; never
would I’ve created rivers from tears I wept.
Memories that glide through my mind,
tearing deep into my corrupted heart.
Another love like yours I’ll never find,
I knew you were the one from the start.
Hearing our song playing on the radio,
remembering all the nights we’d dance.
Without your sweet love, where will I go?
Won’t you give me love’s second chance?
I can’t take another night without your love,
this pain is the one I never thought I’d feel.
I look up into the stars, pray to God above,
Please tell me, the pain I feel isn’t real.
I walk aimlessly looking for my place,
within this horrifying world that we live.
Everywhere I go, I see your smiling face,
to hold you once more, Oh! What I’d give.
Your echoing last words, calling my name,
making my days and nights a living hell.
For your death, myself I’ve come to blame,
maybe if I were there, you wouldn’t have fell.
If one single moment could last forever,
there's one I wish we could have kept.
was the moment I had your love; never
would I have went back to the way I wept.
