Everyday your candle burns
Your voice, your smile

When we were not looking
He took your hand
and lead you home
I know
You are in a better place
But I still miss you

-In loving memory of a dear husband and father, Norman who passed away July 20, 2000.
I watched you suffer,
Heard you sigh
And all I could do
Was stand by.
But when the time came,
I suffered too.
You never deserved
What you went through
God took you hand
We had to part.
He eased you pain
But broke my heart.
Although I smile,
And seem carefree
No one misses you
More than me.
