Forever Angel

Blaque Diamond 1989 (Charlotte, North Carolina)



You are no longer here with me,
But in my heart you will always be.
My love for you will never change,
Even though my memories are all that remain.

The times we spent together,
Will last in my thoughts forever.
I miss you each and every day,
But I know you are in a better place.

Your memory will never die,
Even as the months and years go by.
It hurts sometimes when I think of you,
Because I think of all the things we used to do.

It brings tears to my eyes,
And I have to question why.
Did you have to leave so soon?
When so many people were loving you.

I know it’s god’s plan,
But sometimes I just don’t understand.
Why my heart aches so much,
And I yearn for your gentle touch.

You are now resting in peace,
Your pain on earth has ceased.
Gone but not forgotten you are,
Because you will always live in my heart.

Even though I wish you could’ve stayed,
I would not have wanted your suffering delayed.
So go now and embark on your new journey,
As you enter the gates, oh so pearly.

I trust that we will meet again,
So we can continue where we left off when.
God called home his oh so faithful,
Heaven just welcomed a forever angel.
