One year ago today
You took your rightful place among the angels
Sadness lingers at the edge of every memory
Please don't be disappointed
I'm trying so hard not to cry
You're free now
There is no more pain
But your absence has left a gaping hole
And tears fall like rain
God how I miss you!
It only hurts with every breath
The realization has finally hit...
You're never coming back
All because the Iraqi's couldn't fight their own war
Letters are neatly folded in a drawer
Dog-eared and now decorated with falling tears
God how I miss you...
There was so much left to say
So much you had yet to realize
Forgive me
I can no longer help but cry
Without a second thought
You gave your life to keep us free
When I called you my hero
You laughed at me
But it's true
For you saved my life
With proof of love
So if from your heavenly post you see me cry
Please don't be disappointed




A Dedication to US Army Major Christopher Byrd the greatest man i have ever known and the keeper of my heart now and always no matter who else comes along
