Standing in the Kitchen

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

I eat dinner standing in the kitchen
Because that’s now what I do
When I sit at the dining room table
I still expect to sit down next to you.

But I guess those days are long over
Though my mind still plays tricks on me
For I still love you more than forever
That my heart is still breaking you see.

The days are so long I can’t stand it
The nights they’re an eternity
For without you being beside me
I don’t know how I continue to be.

I keep praying this all will be over
As I wake to a beautiful day
For an opportunity to tell someone I Love them
When I’m gone it is Love that will stay.
