I wish I could see you…

I wish I could see you with Jesus

just a quick glimpse into your new life

maybe my chest wouldn’t be so tight

maybe I could sleep more soundly at night

I know there’s light at the end of the tunnel

but it still seems so far away

it feels like you’ve been gone a thousand years

and it feels like you were here just yesterday

it’s hard to remember the sound of your laughter

and the warmth of your amazing hugs

I hope you know how much you were loved

I struggle sometimes to find joy in the pain

but even in the heartache I’d choose you again

every tear is worth having you in my arms

and the privilege of being your mom

far outweighs my broken heart
