ALONE
I sit alone and look around
A sea of flowers on the ground
So many names without a face
Why are we here
A time in space
I wait for you to come to me
A moment from eternity
But still the emptiness remains
Emotions, feelings, still the same
There is no peace for me today
I search for words I cannot say
I reach for you, but you're not there
No one hears me
No one cares
The world is spinning
Life goes on
My world has stopped
Because you're gone
If I could only have a chance
To hear the music
Dance the dance
Your final song of life is done
Brother, Father, Best Friend
Son






Memorial November 29, 1997
Like a single grain of sand
We sit alone upon the beach
Trying hard to understand
It's just slightly out of reach
Many questions without answers
Did we ever have a choice
Will our prayers and thoughts be answered
Can we speak without a voice
To everything there is a purpose Time and Place ...
Our Destiny Life's beginning
Life is ending
Only God can hold the key ...
Chad ...
Brother, Husband, Father, Friend
Our Son
He will be missed

Please
Please, don’t ask if I’m over it yet
I’ll never be over it
Please, don’t tell me he’s in a better place
He isn’t here with me
Please, don’t say at least he isn’t suffering
I haven’t come to terms with why he had
to suffer at all
Please, don’t tell me you know how I feel
Unless you have lost a child
Please, don’t ask me if I feel better
Bereavement isn’t a condition that clears up
Please, don’t tell me at least you had him for so many years
What year would you choose for your child to die?
Please, don’t tell me God never gives us more
than we can bear
Please, just say you are sorry
Please, just say you remember my child , if you do
Please, Just let me talk about my child
Please, mention my child’s name
Please, just let me cry
