” Do I”

Do I not breath the same air you breath
Feel the same pain that you do?
Cry the same tears you do?

Do I not hurt like you do
feel sad like you?
Bleed the same color you do?
Love like you do?

Do I not miss you late at night when you’re not lying beside me
and holding me tight?
Do I not cry when I hear your voice on the phone?
Cry when I see your smiling face looking back at me?
Feel heartache when I visit your grave to put fresh flowers there?

Do I not wish you was home every night holding me tight as we watch the kids play?
Hope that the outcome would have been different?
Feel the pain of missing you?
See the misery that your family is going through?

Baby I see all of these things, feel all of these things.
I hurt inside all the time because I know that you’re not coming back.
I love you my love and I know we will see each other again.
