For The Love of Him

So far out of reach

So far out of touch

His emotional breach

Missing out on so much

A misguided soul

A misspent life

Trying to feel whole

With girlfriends and a wife

Never caring or even knowing

The reasons he does all he does

On his face the strain is showing

He's a different man than he was

The hardened look in his eyes

Deep furrows on his face

Speaks of bitter tears he cries

Pain that whiskey can't erase

Life goes on for him each day

He doesn't know I love him, still

Remembering him each time I pray

Knowing that I always will.....
