A BIRTHDAY WISH
I know this day belongs to you
For upon this day you were born
But being apart on your special day
Leaves my heart shattered and torn
I wanted to give you a special gift

One that would surely last
Something to put a song in my heart
And dry away the tears
I thought perhaps balloons or flowers
But I knew that eventually
They would just wither away

I thought about it long and hard
What gift would surely last
Something that you've never had
On your birthday in the past
I realized that such a gift
Couldn't come close to compare
To the grand celebration

That you must be having
So I'm sending you a birthday wish
From the bottom of my heart
To give me strength and courage
Everyday that we're apart
I know you're happy
With no sorrow, tears or pain

But sometimes I'm so lonesome
My tears fall like rain
So on your special day
My wish I send to you
Is someday I'll be with you
When my hopes come thru

And as I tarry on thru the days
Hold my wish close to your heart
For Death will come and take me home
As long as I do my part
For now I must travel thru life alone

For He isn't ready for me yet
But what a glorious thing it'll be
When your smiling face I see
So on your birthday this year
My wish I send to you
Remember me, don't give up.
For someday I'll be there too.

Loves,
Knkl
