For Randy

by Michelle   Aug 16, 2004


These certain days will always come and go
These moments will always touch my soul...
I remember your birthday today but you're not around
Almost three years ago they placed your body into the ground...
A part of those who love you died with you that day
But the memories you left with us will never be swept away...
The way you made a joke of life, serious just wasn't your way
I'm remembering all this and more, because you were born today...
Your teasing smile, the way you cared, will continue to live on
The essence of all that was you, never from us will be gone...
My brother and my friend as well, forever more to be
No matter if we hadn't talked for weeks, I knew that you loved me...
When I stopped by the cemetary today, and looked upon your grave
I hope that you knew I was there, knew how much I wish I could have saved...
You from your own foolish actions, when you took your life that day
And I wish that for your birthday, you were here to celebrate today.

    This is so moving honey i dont quite know what to say. There are certain lines that are heartbreaking to read. I cant begin to imagine what you and your family are going through on this difficult date. When you came in from work you looked totaly out of it, i hope me being here made it slightly easier for you sweetheart. God rest your brothers soul and my prayers go out to your parents. love you baby xxx
