Sometimes the thoughts in my head get bored and go for a stroll out through my mouth. This is rarely a good thing.


I miss your smile

Gentle and kind

And your hugs

Welcoming and warm

The conversations we had

There was always something to say

You looked out for me

And now you're watching over me

There are no words to describe how much I love you and miss you

Time can never heal losing you

The grieving is a process that never ends

I didn't get enough time with you

It's not fair, it was barely fifteen years

But I was lucky to get the time that I got

All the pain and suffering you endured makes you the strongest person I know

Not a day goes by where I don't
think of you, and often I cry

When I think about how the time is passing

There is so much I wish I could share with you

So much I want you to see

I like to think you're watching from above

I'd give anything in the world for you to still be here with us

The memories will never fade

You are at peace in Heaven now

You'll always be in my heart

You are loved by many, and forgotten by none

Time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping into the future.

Soo sad but sweet.
