Dying For Love

My life was long and hard, the end is almost near,
as I look back upon it, it was full of tears.
The memories haunt me, some are so bad,
some are too painful,some were so sad.

When I was a child, my father left my life,
all I had was mother, to help with my strife.
She didn't want to live, we held each other tight,
somehow we both made it, she saw the morning light.

When I was in high school, my first love said good by,
I was left alone again, to sit and wonder why.
I didn't want to live, my mother held me tight,
she would not let me go, I felt her arms all night.

One day I found true love, I soon became his wife,
our love would be forever, his love became my life.
One day he said to me, I must be moving on,
my heart was broken, once again I was alone.

The pain was unbearable, I did not want to live,
my heart is so empty, nothing left to give.
I felt so all alone, no one to hold me tight,
memories of mother's arms, helped me through the night.

The years went by slow, no love left to give,
somehow I did survive, I did want to live.
When I get to Heaven, as God opens the door,
no longer alone,I'll feel love ever more.
