: Please Go Back Another Day by Debi Pick Marquette


To the love of your life, you had to say goodbye
We do not understand why Aaron had to die
Becky, my Goddaughter, I don't know what to say
Dear God, can't we please, just go back another day

You were so in love and found happiness at last
You barely had a start, and the past was in the past
He adored your kids like a dad in every way
Dear God, can't we please, just go back another day

Your kids loved him too, soon in marriage, you would blend 
Life as a family, the four of you would spend
Your world as you know it, has left and gone astray
Dear God, can't we please just go back another day

 I do not know the whats, and I sure don't know the why's
I wish I knew the way to stop the tears from your eyes
An answer to your question of why he couldn't stay
Dear God, can't we please, just go back another day

 A horrifying tragedy; it's hard to face tomorrow
I'm thankful for the friends, who pray for all your sorrow
A medical condition; but no one else would pay
Dear God, can't we please, just go back another day

God will care for all of you, and He will guard your heart
One day it will be easier, and then the peace will start
But now it's devastating; Lord, hear me as I pray 
Dear God, can't we please, just go back another day

Author Notes
On his way home from work late last night, Aaron must have had a medical condition or blackout because his car accelerated into a tree and was killed instantly.
(We are thankful he didn't hit anyone else)
He has had this happen once before, but thought if was a one time thing.
Everyone is devastated and ask for prayers for our dear Becky and her kids; and his family too.
Aaron is also a friend of our kids, helped with our cropland and lived just down the road from us. For us the hardest is knowing what it is doing to my sweet other daughter, Becky
An autopsy is being done today; we should know the results soon
I am handling it the way I always handle stress and sadness: I write a poem.
