Cries in the Night

Cries in the night from sorrow and grief

For a love that was lost in time

We did not plan to be parted

So we didn’t count the cost

Broken hearts beating no longer as one

Tarnished and bruised and all alone

Accountable only to God now

All our plans were undone

We did not know we couldn’t have each other

So the tears have continued to fall

Weeping eyes tell the tale

Letting go will be the hardest of all

Why were we brought together again?

Just to be torn apart by what’s right

Paths traveled have led us here

Still separate yet maybe together someday

In eternal life.
