Last Wish

I wished it away,
I wished it away with might,
Futile I tried, no hope left in sight.

Dreams all dashed,
Family, has crashed.

I wished it away,
There’s not much left to say.

Oh, what we should have been,
Why Lord, did I lose my closest friend?

All our Lives, never the same,
Who really, should carry the blame?

No pill can erase,
The hurt upon my face.

Have faith the size of a mustard seed,
Even though my heart still bleeds.

How can this be by Your hand?
Guess I’ll never understand.

Soldier on and be strong,
Why? When it feels so wrong.

They say, “This too shall pass”,
But no divorce is ever done with class.

Our children’s tears and pain, still yet to come,
Oh, how I wish I could give you some.

I wished it away,
I wished it away with might.
Our family is now broken,
Because you turned out the light.
