To lose someone I loved so much bring pain beyond belief, there are no words to ease my pain, my sadness and my grief.. I've lost someone not just close to me but to a lot of people... I think of your special ways and wish you were near but although you left this world, you'll stay within my heart guiding like an angel even though were apart for love is everlasting and so are our memories... I thought of you today, I often speak your name. All I have is memories and your picture in a frame. God has you in his arms and I have you in my heart...
Truly Gonna Miss You
