"Always There Beside Me"


A million words would not bring you back

I know because I’ve tried, neither a million tears

I know I’ve cried

But I do know that I have you scared on my heart

Not one day goes by that I don’t think of you

We’ve never been far apart

I miss you more and more

Every day it seems

That I’m growing up

And I know you’re watching me

And I know you’re proud of me

For the strong person I’ve come to be

All the lessons I’ve learned over the past couple of years

All the heartbreak and tears

You made me a stronger person

You made me tough

I cant bring you back

Your in gods hands

How I wish I could see you again

Get a hug in person

But all I have now are some memories

But grew up knowing that your above watching me

Seeing how I’m taking on life

But in some type way I’m jealous of the nights I don’t spend with you

Jealous of the rain that touches your skin

And oh how I spent those nights wondering if you would come back

But you never did

I’m jealous but happy

Simply because your in the clouds without me

And it hurts

But I still know you’re here with me

In a way you never left

Just left marks on my heart

But I know that I’ll see you again

And I’ll be able to touch your skin

See your smile

Breathe you in

I’ll hear you say that you love me

All the way from heaven

When I take my last breath

You’ll be right there beside me

As you’ve always been
