Dear Bobby

Today hits harder than days before

As birthday wishes light up a page,

Wishes that barely hit the ceiling

Never less than reach up to heaven,

Where you fly with eagles and angels

You lead the band in glorious praise,

Another day you have prefect bliss

Selfish it would be to want you back

While you stay in the arms of Jesus,

But oh I miss your smile and that cape,  

My wish though is to make this amend

The one you will never get to hear

And the roses you will never receive,

To wait another day is too late

 I realize as I wipe the leaves away,

This grave marks the regret left inside

A lesson to learn as bridges burn,

Forgiveness lingers within your soul
Though too far away in heaven’s realm,

I hope you know of my compassion

As we wait to be reunited,

But for now you live in memory

With such cherished love from an old friend
