Always There

You
You were
You were always
There
Everywhere!
No matter what.
I could always count on you
For little things
For major things

You
You loved
You loved me
The most
I could always count on you
Depend on you
Always

You
You were
You were strong
You always cared
No words can explain
My love for you
How dear you are to my heart
I miss you so

I
I long
I long to
See
Hear
Touch
Speak
Listen ... to your voice
Hear the whisper of your wisdom
I miss you so

One
One whole
One whole year
gone ...
Amazingly so

Time
Time echoes
Time echoes in my ears
Speed
Rushing
If only things could slow
Oh, I miss you so

You
You are
There
With Him
Your Maker
Your Dad
Your Father
I'm glad

The pain
The pain of this earth
Are gone for you
How sweet ...
You are in Heaven
And,
I am on Earth
Oh, how I miss you so

I
I love
I love you
So much
And
I remember
Your love
For me

Thanks, Dad
God Bless
