The Empty Chair

Where once you sat beside me
As my dear companion true
Held your breath watching mysteries
In your dreams a vacant hue
I need to hear you whisper
Where there were gentle snores
I find it hard to recall moments
When we laughed or had smores
My dear one I so miss you
Though it may not seem its so
My tears fall in lonely moments
When my thoughts stray to you
I hope that you are happy
In the ways that Heaven blends
Our past and our good fortune
When our days are at their ends
I know you must be happy
Where you are there is no pain
You’re with your one true sweetheart
And your ma and pa again
So I will put my tears away
For a day when I am sad
And never give you reason
To think my life is bad
I will raise my head in pleasure
Though I see your touch everywhere
I love you and I miss you

In the lovely empty chair
