Irreplaceable

Dear Lord heed
Hear this voice
I am empty
And still I need
This woman
In my life
Irreplaceable
And so beautiful
My darling girl
Is our whole world
Take extra care
Send your prayers
One of a kind
This Aunt of mine
Sweet
Treat
Cannot beat
Undefeated
Precious be
You and me
Dear Elaine
This fame game
Using your name
Plant a seed
Pulpit bleeds
Life stemmed
Forever dimmed
Tonight I stop
At all cost
Tell you no
She can’t go
Not her time
Wings delayed
Keep her home
