“March 12, 2006”

 

It’s been a year today,

And the pain never goes away.

I love and miss you Ryan

More than I can ever say.

Oh how I wish I could have

Just one more day.

To hear you say I love you mom

And I could touch your smiling face.

 

 

“We Walked Together”

 

We walked together, you and I.

A mother and her son.

We had hopes and dreams for tomorrow,

But tomorrow didn't come.

We walked together, you and I.

We talked, we laughed, we loved.

We shared so many happy times

And for that, I thank the Lord above.

We walked together, You and I,

But only for a short time.

For all too soon it ended

Leaving pieces of broken hearts behind.

And even though I miss you,

More than words can say,

I thank God that I got to walk with you

Every precious moment of every day....

 

                                 

"Another Day Without "

Author Unknown

 

The stillness of the morning wakes me up,

but I don't see why the world begins another day

When my son's not here with me.

This house feels strangely silent,

and his room a lonely place.

I long to touch his soft brown hair

and kiss his sweet smiling face.

I'll never get to hear him call out

"Hey Mom, how are you today.”

I'm only left with memories

Please God--don't let them fade.

Deep in my heart, his spirit lives.

His laughter, I still hear

He'll forever be my little boy

Though I can't hold him near.

 

 

"When God called you Home"

Author Unknown

 

A million times I needed you,

A million times I cried.

If love alone could have saved you,

You never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,

In death I love you still.

In my heart you hold a place,

No one else could ever fill.

It broke my heart to lose you,

But you did not go alone.

For part of me went with you,

The night God called you home.
