Four Years

     A few days ago my husband and I went to the Quantico National Cemetery where Graham is buried.  We placed these flowers on his grave.  In two more days it will be 4 years since he died.  It is a very difficult week.  I miss my son more than I could ever say.

I am at the cemetery today,
Placing flowers upon your grave,
It’s been four years now since you passed,
Four years ago when I saw you last.

I long to see you once again,
I miss you son, my heart, my friend,
The tears are running down my cheeks,
I feel emotionally drained and weak.

Your gravesite is not where I ever thought to be,
With only your name and dates to see,
Marking the anniversary of the day you died,
And another year that I have cried.
