Array ( [sid] => 182607 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Today I Left You [time] => 2016-02-17 18:57:43 [hometext] => By: E. Wayne Searles [bodytext] =>


Today I left you
as you stood at my bedside to say goodbye
I wish I didn’t have to go
but we know the reasons why

Now I am in a place
where pain is no more
I am watching over each of you
you’re my loving children whom I adore

Please don’t be angry
try to lift the burden that brings you tears
Keep all of our loving memories
of everything we did through the years

I may be gone
but within each of you I still live
Take care of my grand children
as you all have so much love to give

I am watching you right now
I know you hurt so bad
Just know I love you so much
I am your loving dad

I know you’re going to miss me
I will miss you too
I will never say goodbye
because my spirit will always be with you

So please smile
and think happy thoughts for me
I will be right here waiting
when someday heaven is your place to be

“Love You All”
YOUR LOVING DAD
