Our minds are full of stuff, good and bad
It's hard not to think of how my son was, as his dad.
The fun times we often shared
Are now places of which I'm scared.
Make new memories people say
Of course, that has to be the way
But that doesn't stop the old memories coming
Of times when we'd be out and about running.
Overthinking is not something you can just let go
The mind finds it easy to run to and fro.
Let go and let God, t’is often said
But the thoughts keep returning in my head.
There is a time for everything under the sun
But it hurts greatly when it's your own son.
We're so thankful for a great many things
But I can't help remembering how he would sing
God is good and a God of hope
And it's this that helps me daily to cope
So when I begin to overthink of times past
I know in reality that this won't last.
The Bible tells me to think on things that are excellent and worthy of praise.
This seems so long, but it's only a phase
Eternity is approaching when He will make all things new
Until that day, help me, my mind renew.
