I wish that you were here with me or
I wish that I was there with you,
But as you know from experience, all wishes don't come true.
I wish that you didn't have to leave, but I do understand.
That you passing and leaving all of your family
and friends behind was all in Gods special plan.
I know that I will see you again, on judgement day.
You and I will hold hands and walk through Heavens gates.
People lose family everyday so for my love
and there love I will stand.
Because on that special day
God will gather his people and we will be
Together Again.
Memories
Why is it that the
lord,
takes the good ones
to soon
Is it just to punish
the people
who wait for them to
bloom.
You had such a future
why did you have to
go
Did the angels call
you
and tell you it must
be so.
To all people with loved ones lost
I understand your
grief,
I to have lost my
brother,
through accidental
means.
The words that I
wanted to say,
before he passed and went.
only through heaven
now be written and be
sent.
Trying to find the
words
that I wanted always
to say
You were my big
brother
you will always be
that way.
Memories Build a Special Bridge
Our memories build a
special bridge
when loved ones have to part
to help us feel we're with them still
and sooth a grieving heart.
Our memories span the years we shared,
preserving ties that bind,
They build a special bridge of love
and bring us peace of mind.

Brother
I sit here and think,
my brother is dead,
how can you leave me,
runs through my head,
how can I think this,
I love him so much,
he is my brother,
I need him so much,
I sit here and think,
of what people will say,
gathered round his coffin,
death took him away,
I shouldn't write this,
but I need to tell,
how my body's on earth,
but my mind is in hell.
Miss You
Whenever I felt
lonely you were always there,
a person with whom everything I could share.
My inspiration, my idol, my pride, my alter ego,
the first one to cheer me up whenever I am low.
In a stranded land, stormy and cold,
it's you whose hand I could've always have hold.
You are the one who was always by my side,
the person in whom everything I could confide.
Being buddies, fighting, playing, smiling, frowning,
I miss you for each and every small thing.
Parting from you was what I dreaded the most,
away from you I felt as if you are lost.
I'll cherish the moments of growing up with you,
no words can describe how much I miss you.
Until then
my Angel watches over
me!
Memories Of You
When I see your face
I remember your smile;
The way you moved,
Your courageous style.
Your laughter rings clearly,
Straight through to my heart;
It seems like only yesterday
We were made to part.
Your incredible strength,
The way you stuck by me;
You were my best friend,
It was so easy to see.
My soul cries for you,
When memories flood back;
Of the person I lost,
And reminds me of what lacks.
I have morned for years
Over your painful death;
The day you passed,
They laid my heart to rest.
I hurt for your presence,
And long for the day we reunite;
I will settle for the memories
I hold very tight.
More So
Of all the hours I’ve
felt so small
Of all the times I’ve
faced a fall
Of all the races I couldn’t run
Of all the things I haven’t done
Of all the places I feared to tread
Of all the moments I faced with dread
Of all the people I couldn’t reach
Of all the lessons I failed to teach
Of all the steps I didn’t take
Of all the moves I couldn’t make
Of all the actions that made me meek
Of all the things that made me weak
Of all the words I tried to say
Of all the pain that came my way
Of all the paths I didn’t pave
Of all the souls I couldn’t save
Of all the times I failed to act
Of all the hurt I can’t take back
Of all the tears that burn right through
Of all these things, the loss of you
Goodbye
I prayed for death to
come to him, and take away his pain.
But death, I am so jealous, I want him back again.
I went and knelt beside his grave, but no matter how I try.
The words just would not come, I could not say goodbye.
I thought that when he passed away, I would feel relief.
But the only thing that I can feel, is emptiness and grief.
I long to see him one more time, to tell him how I feel.
If I could only talk to him, I know my heart would heal.
He tried to tell me something, before he passed away.
But I could not understand, what Jim was trying to say.
He said, take care of business, what business could that be?
But he could talk no more that day, he never answered me.
Was goodbye the business, which I refused to see?
If I would have said goodbye to him, and him goodbye to me?
Would it help the emptiness, and the pain inside my heart?
If I could have said goodbye to him, would the healing start?
For now I'll try to say goodbye, that's how it has to be.
Until the day we're reunited, back my bro and me.
The last Post
As the bugle played a
haunting strain of taps
Its music speaking volumes to my soul
In reverie I heard his voice, I felt his touch,
Though now in slumber, no flesh but whole.
Behind curtained eyes his form took shape
with smiling eyes he softly said.
Come now, carry not this heavy heart
For I’m at peace, alive not dead.
He spoke of hearts that wove together
Souls en mass that shared the dawn
Known love , seen starlight, touched a flower
Saw their darling children born.
Our friends and I have merely passed on
a better place there ne’er could be.
So walk in peace and happiness
And know that earth is not all there be.
The love of mortals weep in sorrow
But tell to them of what you see.
That I am back where I was made
With my brothers in eternity.
The light before my eyes grew brighter
I saw him smile toward the west
as gentle arms enfolded round him
And took him to his heaven’s rest.
Memories
We thought of you
with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence,
We often speak your name;
All we have now are memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we will never part;
God has you in his keep,
We have you in our heart.
It broke our heart to lose you.
But you didn't go alone,
For a part of us went with you...
The day God took you home.
Ascention
And if I go,
while you're still here. . .
Know that I live on,
vibrating to a different measure
behind a thin veil you cannot see through.
You will not see me, so you must have faith.
I'll wait for the time when we can soar together again,
both aware of each other.
Until then, live your life to its fullest.
and when you need me,
Just whisper my name in your heart,
and I will be there.

Gently Sleeping
Are you gently
sleeping
Here inside my dream
and isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen
as my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me
each and Everyday.
Maybe
Who can say for
certain
maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
your memories so clear.
Birthdays In Heaven
Happy Birthday in
Heaven
it’s your first one there.
I’m thinking of you today
and wish you were here.
You are remembered
every single day and night.
I feel your presence
in the star’s twinkling light.
I still can’t believe
that you are gone.
Although my life moves on
my heart is torn.
Not a day passes by
that I don’t cry.
Always wondering
why did you have to die?
So on this day I’ll
think of you
just as on any other.
Happy Birthday to you,
my dear sweet brother.
Love and miss you so
much,
FLY
Fly, fly little wing
Fly beyond imagining
The softest cloud, the whitest dove
Upon the wind of heaven's love
Past the planets and the stars
Leave this lonely world of ours
Escape the sorrow and the pain
And fly again
Fly, fly precious one
Your endless journey has begun
Take your gentle happiness
Far too beautiful for this
Cross over to the other shore
There is peace forevermore
But hold this memory bittersweet
Until we meet
Fly, fly do not fear
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear
Your heart is pure, your soul is free
Be on your way, don't wait for me
Above the universe you'll climb
On beyond the hands of time
The moon will rise, the sun will set
I won't forget
Fly, fly little wing
Fly where only angels sing
Fly away, the time is right
Go now, find the light.
By - Celine Dion
Spaces
In my soul there is a
space
that can never be filled.
But in my heart there is hope
because you are with me still.
In my heart, you will
live on.
Always there, never gone
my precious child, you left too soon.
And though we may be apart
you’ll live forever...in my heart.
Only the Best
A heart of gold stopped beating,
two shining eyes at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove,
He only takes the best.
God knows you had to leave us,
but you did not go alone,
for part of us went with you,
the day He took you home.
To some you are forgotten,
to others just part of the past,
but to us who loved and lost you,
the memory will always last.
God hath Not Promised
God hath not promised skies always blue,
Flower strewn pathways all our lives through;
God hath not promised sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow, peace without pain.
But God hath promised strength for the day,
Rest for the labor, light for the way,
Grace for the trials, help from above,
Unfailing sympathy, undying love.

God Took You Home to Heaven
God took you home to Heaven.
I begged you not to leave.
He has a place set aside for you,
And I am left to grieve.
I miss your gentle smile,
Your laugh and never-ending love.
Please watch over me down here
From your new home up above.
My life has changed forever.
There is a hole now in my heart.
I will wait until I am called,
Then we will never part.
