"living in your memory"

Five long years ago lives were shattered, hopes and dreams replaced my
mourning and pain. for some life lost all meaning, we lived each day as
if we were programmed to do so, our minds and hearts filled to the brim
with days we would never again have with you, laughs we will never again
share. After several years i saw something through the tears and pain
for the first time, this was not the way you would've wanted things to
be. you were always so happy and full of love which you showered upon
my cousins and i constantly, making us feel as if the world could be
ours. looking out into the darkness of night i wondered what you
thought, sitting up there watching your daughters and neice struggling
to keep their heads above water. anger surged through me like a bolt of
electricity. how could we do this? you didn't leave us by choice it
was probably tearing you apart watching over us. it was at that very
moment i smiled through the steadily falling tears, looked out into the
starry summer night and softly promised you one way or the other we'd be
alright, we would live each day in your memory until at last we are
together again...



this poem is a dedication to Dion Parish the greatest uncle and father
who ever lived. he was there when no one else seemed to care, the only
one i ever admired, respected and loved as if he were my own father. he
is greatly missed by all who knew him

Honey thats beautiful!!!!!!!!!!! I, and I know others on this site could
replace the name with our loved ones!!!! Bravo to you!!!!

This is a very beautiful dedication S~P.Extremely deep & heartfelt.Rest
assured that ur uncle is looking down at U & smileing.He can feel &
sense every word that U have spoken about him.And I am equally certain
that for every tear that U have shed for him,he would rather have each 1
replaced with a smile.I am sure that we would prefer that U are happy
for each & every day that U remain upon the earth.He is very proud of U
indeed.Absolutely superp S~P.;=)((bear~hug))Godspeed!Cybear
