everytime I said "I love you" I was only scratching the surface
of a deeper meaning that held a certain kind of important purpose
everytime I hugged you I was only showing a portion of my love
cause nothing that I could do or say would ever be enough
I could never possiblly show you how much you meant to me
how you were one of the most imporant people in my world you see
everytime I cried cause you were gone it was only a sideview of what I felt
cause when I think about all that happened my heart starts to slowly melt
chrous
I think about that time on the beach when we walked hand in hand
I watched the sunset for the first time as we walked across the sand
I think about that time you told our waiter I thought he was hot
and how the waiter said he had a girlfriend and everyone laughed a lot
I think about all the times you called me an icky girl when we talked on the phone
I think about how there was nothing I looked forward to more than you coming home
and I look at all the pictures and I just see
so many times shared with you, just my Uncle and me
all the cards and letters I sent to you all the time to show you I cared
every phone call I made to you just to say "hi, I love you" could never compare
to how blessed I was to know you and how proud I am to say you were my Uncle
and how happy I am to hold these memories close to my heart sweet as honey suckle
and every time I say "I miss you" doesn't even describe how much I really do
and although Heaven is better than anything I could have ever given to you
I wish that you could come back so that I could see you again
and give one more hug to such a wonderful Uncle and friend
chorus
Em, I swear this made me cry. Remember I'm always here for you and that you can always talk to me about anything. *hugs* Email me, k?
That is a beautiful poem in remembrance of your uncle, Em. I am sure he would love it! Sorry for your loss...Pam
I absolutely love this poem/song.
I was in tears because this poem reminds me of my Uncle David who died as well.
Thank you for writing this, I really needed to cry.
