Breathtaking

Breathtaking

A Poem by Just Simple Sounds
"

Written out of respect and love for my cousin's child.

"
Breathtaking...
Taken...

Wishing he would run back as fast as flash

The memories weren't sufficient,
And time, well for more I'm still wishing

Hugs and kisses, kisses and hugs
I love to love, and I love him

Simple things never seem to matter,
Until those simple things are all that were needed to make the perfect batter

Breathtaking...
Taken...

Broken smiles behind a mask,
Like a rug over shattered glass

Forever standing strong,
But a pair of legs can only walk for so long

Heavens gates will open,
And a new angel will be received

A love is never lost nor gone,
Because it never leaves

Breathtaking...
Taken...

Choking, choking ... Wheeze
The symptoms of a mother that weeps

1, 2, skip ... 1, 2, skip
The symptoms of a broken heart

Flatline...
The end result of a battle lost

But there's no place like home,
There's no place like home

Especially when that home is where angels roam
Couldn't keep you here by prayer from dusk to dawn

But who am I to pull you from God's hands,
So go, to the streets of heaven and dance your dance

Love is forever, forever is love
I'll patiently await the day when we're together ... Up above
