Happy Birthday in Heaven to my sweet son Sam. You would be 33 today. I miss you beyond words. I still have days – most days- where my mind still can’t grasp or comprehend your absence from this world.
I’ll make your favorite dinner tonight and set a place at the table for you. I hope I’ll see a flicker in the candle before I blow it out on your cake : because I know it’ll be you. 🙂 Then, I will send you a lantern to heaven.
I hope you’ll help me pick out a perfect guitar today. This year, it will go to a child. Help them to find beauty in the music Sam, just as you did.
I’ll never stop fighting for you. Not until my last breath.
Happy Birthday Sam
I love you.
You’re not here for me to sing to you,
A happy melody
Or to wrap your present or bake a cake
Or call you joyously
To wish you Happy Birthday on this day which was all yours.
But my thoughts are always with you son and they will be forever more.
Happy Birthday up in Heaven Sam
I’ll try to smile today
As I light a candle on a cake
And think of you on this day
33 years ago you came to me
When you were born to me my son
And my son you shall always be
Until my time on earth is done.
