WHAT REALLY MATTERS MOST
 
When your heart is screaming, 'No!'
And your mind just won't accept
What is happening in your life
You pray, Lord just let me forget


If only for a little while
But that isn't how it goes
For the restless mind doesn't rest
When the sun is up .. it knows


You look into the Heavens
Wondering just where he might be
I know that's what I did so long
Through the tears I could not see


It took so long to give in
For that child I'd birthed
Finally had to realize
Twas God sent him to earth


Being a Mother, I called him mine
Yet he was as much his fathers too
When my son left, so did my heart
I had a lot of searching to do


Eventually you will find yourself
But the pain does not subside
You carried this child inside of you
You wished that you had died


God gives to us so willingly
So many gifts, so many things
Who are we to question then
When and To He gives the wings


As I struggled through the years
More knowledge did I receive
How God chooses who he does
How you learn to stop the grief



What matters most is that
For a short time he was mine
God has another angel now
I know how much he'll shine


Our Sons are up in Heaven
No place for tears up there
One thing I will share with you
(At times their very near)
