Bubba Burnette by Teresa Baranowski / Mama

One final goodnight, then released from the pain
The anguish of spirit, the dreams dreamed in vain.
Though brief was your time here, you captured the heart
That vowed not to love you, but now breaks apart.

From you I’ve learned patience, courage and trust;
That loving brings pain, but love we all must.
From you I’ve learned strength of the spirit, and then
from you I’ve learned not to say “never again”.

Go back to the Giver of all lovely things
Go quickly, my sweet, and let your heart take wings.
Your total devotion made my life so bright.
I shall always adore you – Goodnight, Love, Goodnight.

 

You're in my heart always...
Bubba Burnette
