RIP Uncle Stewwy
I miss you and love you
And wish you’d come back.
I need you and want you
Why can’t you come back?
I’d give anything to God
To talk with you again.
I’m holding onto the memories
And never letting them go.
Our Christmas together was the best one by far!
Decorating the house and the tree,
Making snow angels in the back yard.
I never wanted my vacation to be over
I prayed to God that it could last forever.
The next time you came home
I had grown a lot more.
I was older and wiser
Thought life was so grand.
But I was oblivious to cancer
And the ability it had.
To control a whole family
This horrible disease had us in the palm of its hand.
I hugged you and begged you not to let go.
To move here forever
So you can watch me grow.
I’ll miss you and love you
And write to you and show
That cancer can’t kill us
It will only make the love in our family grow.
I remember that summer
Coming home from summer camp
Nanny had left
She hated to see you so ill and so sick
But you asked for her to come
You needed her by your bed side.
I smiled to think that Nannies can heal
A cut on the leg or a scrap on the hand.
So I truly believed that
She would protect you and sooth you
and help you to heal.
Never knowing when I would see you again
I remember wishing I could heal you
God knows I prayed above for him to help you.
I cried like a baby the day that you passed.
The information was haunting me
For weeks at a time.
I could no longer control the tears that I had
I tried to be a trooper
And make nanny a card
But I couldn’t give it to her
I knew she would be sad.
Wanting some answers
And not knowing why
God took you too soon
I still tend to question why.
Even though you’re gone now
I feel you by my side
Helping me to make it through
The tough times when I feel
I can no longer live without you.
RIP Uncle Stewwy-I miss you!
