Hope Fades


'Wasn't going to let it happen
Wasn't going to hope
Wasn't going to think it was possible
Telling myself it hurts to want

But then I failed
I started to think
Maybe this is real
Maybe it could happen for me

And now you're gone
And the possibility fades
I'm left in sadness
Not wanting hope to stay'

Still Miss You


It's been 2 years since I said goodbye.
And so much has changed since then.
I still miss you. I always will.
But the memories I hold in my heart,
let me think of you and smile.
And even though you aren't with me,
I feel lucky to have called you mine.

SHARING


SHARING - 


You loved it

whether it was food

your home

a word of encouragement

laughter

hope

a hug



You loved to share

Everything



your faith

your family

your time


you shared it all



you weren't afraid to live life

with others

in joy

but mostly
in LOVE



Thank you, Bobbie, for sharing

For Bobbie


My heart is saddened

but my soul is glad

that you have finally made it home



Into His loving hands

you are finally at peace

free from the pain that would not cease



My comfort is in Him

and the joy that He brings

knowing that one day I will see you again



RIP Roberta - My life has truly been blessed by having you in it.

Dreams


Dreams, though you drift away,

may you in every way,

be a part of me;

And maybe some day,

let me see,

what I am meant to be.



Dreams, oh so far away,

each and every way,

reminding me;

Though you haunt this day,

wipe your tears from me,

and let me feel free.
