~If Once~

~If Once~

A Poem by Shannon Lee Rohn
"

When someone you love dies.

"
If Once you shook his hand,
And Once you warmed his heart,
Then Once you watched him live,
And Once you watched him part.

If Once you watched him smile,
And Once you watched him cry,
Then Once you held him in your arms,
And Once you watched him die.

If Once you were angry,
And Once you said he didn't belong,
Then Once he was here,
And Once he was gone.

IF once you were sorry,
And Once will never be,
Then Once you felt his presence,
And Once will always be.
