If I Had Only Known By Kristy Barnes

As I sit here tonight with memories of you in my mind
I know there will never be another of your kind
I miss you so much, I wish you were still here.
Just to see your smile or hear your voice near
You will never know just how much I love you
For I will never get the chance to tell you, my dear.
Your life was so short and it just wasn’t fair
But, I do know you are being taken care of up there
I still can’t help, but ask God why
I often get angry, because I want it to be a lie
But reality has hit and it’s just not right
For when you were around, I wish I would have held you tight.
Please visit me in my dreams, for it’s so hard to
sleep at night. I don’t even want to turn out the
light. I pray for that night when I see your
beautiful smile, Then I can finally hold you awhile
Don’t worry sweet Jessica your mom and I are fine
We have finally put our differences behind.
For your sudden death has taught us one thing
you never know just what life can bring.
We all know now, a little too late, to never
take for granted what God can take
As I walk into your house, it’s just not the same
Your mom and dad so sad, taking all the blame
I want so badly to take their pain away
But my words won’t come out, I don’t know what to say
Please watch over them and let them know you are ok.
give them the answers they search for everyday.
For you and God have all the answers they need
To help them live the rest of their life’s Journey, we plead.
Let them know, you are in a safe place
Surrounded by love, with that beautiful smile on your face.
