I do not need a special day to bring you to my mind The days I do not think of you are very hard to find Each morning when I awake I know that you are gone And no one knows the heartache as I try to carry on My heart still aches with sadness and many tears still flow What it meant to lose no one will ever know My thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill In life I loved you dearly; in death I love you still There will always be a heartache, and often a silent tear But always a precious memory of the days when you were here If tears would make a staircase and heartaches make a lane I'd walk the path to heaven and bring you home again I hold you close within my heart; and there you will remain To walk with me throughout my life until we meet again Our family chain is broken now and nothing seems the same But as God calls us one by one, our chain will link again. Happy Birthday Dad, love and miss you loads. Anna xxxx
