Remember Me
I wish that I could once again feel your touch
The warmth of your teddy bear-like embrace
You left us several months ago
And I cry because I can still see your face.
I remember holding your hand
And watching in your unwilling sleep
Wondering if you could hear all of us
If you listened to us weep
I hugged your girl-friend oh-so-tight
As we cries on each other’s shoulders
She kissed your forehead and talked to you
Wishing you could once again hold her
As we all sat and cried with one another in the room
The news came of no hope
I fell to my knees and began to cry
How could I ever cope
When the day came to celebrate your life
So many came to mourn
I could not contain my flow of tears
For when you left a piece of my heart was torn
Friends tried to console me
Telling me you were in a better place because there you would not suffer
But I cannot Believe that
Because the better place for you is here with me and your brother
I will always go back to that day I sat and held your hand
Staring at the face I now miss so much
Wishing that somehow I could go back in time
And once again feel your touch
You were such a great friend and I will always wonder
If that day I sat and held your hand at what was so hard to see
If you could feel my touch, and the warmth of my flesh
If you’ll remember the things I said, the tears I cried, and remember me.
