Wish You Were Here Poems:



11. I Pray
    I pray that someday I won’t miss you as much,
    I pray that someday my pain won’t be a crutch.
    I pray that someday I will no longer look in the crowd,
    Looking to see if you are one of the ones who looked proud.
    
    I pray that someday I won’t wish you were here.
    Although that will never be true, I always wish you were here.
    I pray that someday I will see you again,
    I pray this because I love you, Amen.

12. The One We Call Mom
    Sometimes our lives do not go our way,
    It leaves us broken and going astray.
    We are needing comfort and words that are calm.
    The only one who can do that, is the one we call mom.
    
    But life throws us curve balls and leads us another way,
    We don’t all get our mom, sometimes she has to go away.
    We do our best to remember her teachings and live as she would,
    All we want is to make her proud and be so very good.
    
    There will be days of anguish and days we are sad,
    Those days we will wish she was here and we get mad.
    Someday in the distance, we will find her again,
    And that day will be glorious and filled with zen.
    Poem On Mother

13. The Light In Distance
    There are many occasions that will come your way,
    And you will feel a bit of empty on this day.
    That feeling of emptiness can have a positive light,
    There is someone away who wishes they could take flight.
    
    There is someone who wishes they could find their way to you,
    Not everyone has a person wanting to be with them, like you.
    You may not have them with you on special days like today,
    But know how much they love you and wish they weren’t far away.
    Wedding Poems

14. Uncertainty
    A marriage is strong when there are,
    Two individuals who are committed and strong,
    They are committed and loyal,
    And vowed to be together lifelong.
    
    But as we all know,
    Life sometimes takes control.
    The life we had imagined,
    We no longer feel whole.
    
    So treasure your choices,
    And share your love supply.
    You never know when,
    It will be time to say goodbye.
    Marriage Poems
