Memories That Stay
10 August, 2005
Author: Clive B Ringshall
As you talked I listened with such intent,
I saw such love growing in you,
A love our family will always feed,
You’re eyes as heavy as your heart this day,
As we parted I love you and that won’t change,
To love another with such caring I feel everyday,
It’s sometimes hard when all they do is play,
No matter what you know,
Mistakes will always follow,
You’re heart takes over wanting to give all the best,
In my eyes my best was not you’re best,
My mind records our every event,
My heart scratches it upon my soul to keep,
This love for you can be but once,
Others could follow but will never compare,
For you my child were my first,
The mark shall stay for it feels so real,
Maybe one day soon you will understand and know,
In time I hope that I’m forgiven,
In time you’ll grow and I’ll one day again hold,
I see you cry over our separation,
I tell you soon together we’ll be again I promise,
All I’ll say is live day to day,
The love you have will be you’re strength within,
My thoughts for you are snug and warm,
Up To The Sky And Back
Remember this always
As it comes from me and I’m you’re Dad
