In Just 5 Minutes
(Written by Steven Allen, Uncle)
People come and People go
But in 5 minutes can you measure someone’s soul?
Life comes at you like waves on a stormy sea
My soul does hunger, I cry and plea
Why must she be set free?
My heart beats fast, but yet hers is still.
It doesn’t make sense, and probably never will.
It’s like climbing a never ending hill.
But what I feel is strong and deep
So why, this little one, can’t we keep?
It was such a short moment in time, so how could I know her?
Because I feel her through her father, Sister, Brother,
Her Mother.
For the first time and last time, I get to hold
But somehow she whispers, and I am told...
What do I do, What can I say,
She speaks to my heart... "Do not dismay
Life is more than Living from day to day!"
She reminds me of things to come and that things must be
I am a BETTER PERSON because of her, you see,
So Yes! In 5 minutes you can measure a soul...I Believe!
Her Touch, Her Smell, Her Smile, Her Hair, Her Cry,
But whether a Lifetime, One Week, or in just 5 minutes,
What’s she done will never die.
We Love You Sofia
