Until Then

I am learning that it is going to take a very long time to heal from the heartache of death, and I know there are some of you who have experienced it very recently or in the past; regardless it hurts like hell. This song is dedicated to you.

Until Then
A song by Jenn Bateman
copywrite 2009

Twenty four years
Breathed like a moment
Spoke only of minutes
Fused to my skin,

Only a man
Trapped within limits
The pest stole your wind
So the dove took you in

I’ll never stop missing you
I’ll never stop
I’ll try my best and wait
When I relocate
My tears you’ll pacify
Until then please let me cry


Sixty more years
Sound like a desert
Screaming “alone and so lonely”
Peal from my skin
Only a human
Trapped within limits
Fight the pest with my wind
Let the dove take you in

I’ll never stop missing you
I’ll never stop
Try my best to wait
My tears sedate
My tears will pacify
Until then please let me cry


Heat in my heart
Raw and painful
Days adding up without you
I’ll never stop

I’ll never stop missing you
I’ll never stop
Try my best to wait
To let my tears sedate
My tears will pacify
Until then please let me cry


How many more years
Till we all reach heaven
Singing freedom aloud
Abandon our skin
We’ll be immortal
Alive with out limits
No pest left to fight
Dove welcomes us in

I’ll never stop missing you
I’ll never stop
Try my best to wait
To let my tears sedate
My tears will pacify
Until then please let me cry


I’ll never stop missing you
I’ll never stop
Try my best to wait
To let my tears sedate
My tears will pacify
Until then please let me cry
Until then please let me cry

I'm glad you are finding ways to let your emotions out. I wish I could hear this w/ music behind it. as it is, though, I can almost hear your voice.. I miss you.

This is so touching. I do wish that I could hear you sing it....I am one of those who can relate - my momma died 4 1/2 years ago of pancreatic ca but it still seems like yesterday - take care.

Thanks Kyra and Islandgirl. Yes, I am finding ways to let my emotions out, I think this is one of the best. I find myself reminded of pa, and then i find myself without anyone near that I can pour out my heart to, so it finds its way to this, and hopefully my ability to purge in this way will cleanse some of the hurt.
luv jenn

Hey Jenn- this is Mike Halen just looking for a way to say hello! I agree with Kyra, it's a beautiful song and wish I could hear you sing it.

Hope it helps you find that peace!
