Goodnight

In Remembrance

Time is on my side I sit on the sidelines of my lackluster life From time I hide

Alone time I swear I need something that I can’t see A crime

Time will always be I live without a care in the world Naïve and lost I’ve lost me

Reality Here and now Time is useless Misguiding vow

Pastime Memories of you Eyes becoming wells of water Fountain of youth On a dime

Time wasted Reminders set upon Colored images of what was My prime Once upon a time

Trying to outrun Death’s design Your cancer had spread You’re out of time

Call came Tuesday morning Breakfast time Without warning

You passed away Monday night While asleep

I pray the Lord Your soul to keep

Time is useless Could care less Fountain eyes of sadness I’m numb Motionless

Trapped in times past Time goes by So very fast Live each day as if it were your last

This poem is written in remembrance for my Aunt Lynn. She passed away last night in her sleep. She died of cancer. I don’t have any answer. I am still in shock. Sadness looming. I pray she is at peace with Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I am grateful for the time we did have. Thank you all for reading. Forever grateful.
