                            If Tomorrow Starts Without Me

If tomorrow starts without me, and I’m not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn’t cry the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things we didn’t get to say.
I know how much you love me, and how much I love you,
And each time that you think of me I know you’ll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready in heaven far above,
And that I’d have to leave behind all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye,
for all life, I’d always thought I didn’t want to die.
I had so much to live for and so much yet to do.
It seemed almost impossible that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the love we shared and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday, I thought, just for a while,
I’d say goodbye and hug you and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized that this could never be,
For emptiness and memories would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things that I’d miss come tomorrow.
I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through Heaven’s gates, I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me, from His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity and all I’ve promised you,
Today your life on earth is past but here it’s starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last.
And since each day’s the same, there’s no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful, so trusting, so true.
Though there were times you did some things you knew you shouldn’t do.
And you have been forgiven and now at last you’re free.
So won’t you come and take my hand and share my life with me?"
So if tomorrow starts without me, don’t think we’re far apart, For every time you think of me, please know I’m in your heart.

              Michael, My Son

On the Night God took you from me,
The pain in my heart was unbearable,
I wanted to hug you, tell you I loved you,
And let you know that I was here,
And everything would be okay.
But you see, I didn't get that chance,
They would not allow me near you.
You see, I was told it was a crime scene,
And I might mess up evidence.
My son, Michael, what had happened?

Your family and friends kept a vigil
throughout the rest of that night,
and well into the next day.
Your family and friends would not leave,
But, still I was not allowed to see you.
I could not tell you that I loved you.

I wonder where the time went?
I still need more time with you.
Your sons and family need more time.
I ask a lot of whys??
No one has any answers.
And still there are no answers.

With people all around me
I feel alone inside,
A part of me died when your were taken,
Words of comfort, just words,
No one seems to know what to say,
And the words don’t matter,
They are just words,
No one knows how I feel.
My heart is breaking
Michael, My Son, you see was murdered.
I can’t seem to hide,

I thought I might be dreaming
I thought I'd awake and find you here,
I thought "This can't be happening,
It’s a dream and I would wake soon."
My Son, Michael, I am awake
And I still can’t believe you are gone.

Again I wiped away the tears,
On the day that you were laid to rest
Again my heart broke,
It was so unfair, such a cruel and vicious act.
Again, I am filled with anger.
I want you home with us.

I wonder if the pain will end,
And mostly, I wonder when??
It's hard to be without you,
Hear your voice,
See your smile,
See those blue eyes,
Tell you I love you.
And wish there was more time to tell you
How very important you were to me
And how much I Loved You.

There are so many days and nights
that seem so long,
Especially, when I am alone.
Sometimes, I just sit crying,
I’m missing you so much.
I wish we'd had more time
It was so unfair that your life ended
So tragically..
And, Again Why???

I know God has his arms around you
And holding you close
And keeping you safe
And above all no more pain.

I love and miss you
My Son, Michael.
