Sweet Memories

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.

Kyle's Still Running

September 23, 1995

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.
