of my son, Kyle
June 1988
Where are you, Kyle, and why aren't you here?
Memories are all we have to keep you close and near.
I remember your smile and the jokes you'd play.
Now my heart has an emptiness that won't go away.
High School Graduation -- 1988
My soul cries out from its very depths.
My tears burn rivers of sadness.
Lord, deliver me from this seering agony!
Oh that I could turn back the hands of time
To once again see his loving face and hold him in my arms
To live each moment of his life again--
But the hands of time do not turn back
And this fiery torment consumes again.
You're Still Here
At the finest level of my being
You're still with me.
At that level beyond sight
We meet face to smiling face.
We talk and laugh with each other.
In a place beyond word.
We still touch each other.
On a level beyond touch.
We share time together in a place
Where time stands still.
We are still together
On a level called love.
But I cry alone for you
In a place called reality.
How I miss you, Kyle.

Sorry I never told you all I wanted to say.
Now it's too late to hold you 'cause you've flown away, so far away.
Never had I imagined living without your smile.
Feeling and knowing you hear me, it keeps me alive, alive.
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way.
And I know eventually we'll be together, one sweet day.
My son, I never showed you--assumed you'd always be there.
Took your presence for granted, but I always cared.
And I miss the love we shared.
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way.
And I know evertually we'll be together, one sweet day.
Although the sun will shine the same, I'll always look to a brighter day.
Lord, I know when I lay me down to sleep, you will always listen as I pray.
And I know you're shining down on me from heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way.
And I know evertually we'll be together, one sweet day.
Adapted from Mariah Carey's "One Sweet Day"
