And, I wanted to share it with everyone. Especially those who have lost their love's. My Roger has been gone for almost 6 months and I still cry for him every day. I have had such a hard time getting over the loss of my boy. I am a very emotional person and found writing this has made me feel a little better.
You came to me in a dream
Not a care in the world and running so free
My eyes grew wide when I saw it was you
My heart skipped a beat as I thought it couldn’t be true
You came towards me, my arms open wide
You stopped and dodged side to side
I stood there watching and asked “You want to play?”
I ran at you as you went the other way
You chased me down as you ran full speed
You jumped over logs as I had never seen
Trotting and happy and dancing along
I said “come on boy, it’s time to go home.”
You came to a stop and looked at me sad
I asked what was wrong, as you dropped your head
“I was always a good boy and listened to you well,” “But, this time I cannot do as you say.”
“If I come home things will be as they were.”
“The pain will return”
“I will be sick”
“I won’t be able to run like this”
“I won’t be able to jump real high”
“I won’t feel like I can touch the sky”
“Don’t get me wrong, I miss all your love.”
“I miss your care” “I miss you always being there”
“I miss my family” “I miss the praise”
“I miss our long walks on those cold winter days”
“When the time came, you were not selfish”
“You thought of me more than yourself”
“You knew there was not much more you could do”
“So you set me free”
“Free from the pain I could no longer bear”
“Free from the pain that made you sad”
“Here I am healthy and enjoying my new life”
“Though I watch you daily and through the night”
“I keep an eye on the girls and make sure they are ok”
“I let daddy know I’m there when he is away”
“I’ll watch out for you till that day finally comes…”
“When you and I are together again…”
