Close to the Heart


As she got out from the car she looked around
It was all so much to take in
Her lungs filled with the sweet mountain air
Her heart began to fill with a pain unexplainable
Her face was alit with the sun beaming bright
Each step she took was one closer to an answer
Each step was one closer to a closure she sought
Then in one moment
One look at that face her heart broke
Her heart cried out in a pain she had with held
She stared straight into those eyes that only wanted to speak the truth
She stared straight into those eyes that only wanted to speak of hope
She is sorry she had not spent more time
She was sorry she had not said I love you more
She loved him
She truly believed a sad truth in the world
That some things you don't realize how much you love them
Until they are but a memory
