Missing

Eileen Goldberg 1950 (Brooklyn)



I miss you every single day,
a pain that will not go away.
Memories of life, so sweet,
without you, life is incomplete.
Not hard to keep your memory alive
the hard part is to just survive.
Remembering the joyous times
knowing how they all define
a life spent loving and giving to all
A smile, sweet voice, blessings
that we all recall.
Time may pass, years fly by, it’s true
 but nothing gets easier, I’ll always
miss you.
