Youre Son
By: Mellissa Floyd
This is dedicated to a family who is close to everyone here at Wongaa.
And to all our Men and Women who so valiantly defend our country,
sometimes sacrificing everything.
Loosing someone is not easy to take
When I lost my mother my heart it did break
It seems like you will not make it through
But I?m living proof that with time you do
I do not know what its like to lose a son
But loosing my mother weighed more than a ton
It feels like the pain will not go away
I still think of her every day
I am not going to tell you that you'll get over it fast
You will never get over it, it will always last
Just keep your son very close to your heart
As long as he?s there you?ll never be apart
Think of the good things that he has done
Think of all the battles that he has won
He was over there fighting for you
Keeping you safe from what he went through
He will always be with you
He will never leave your side
He will always be in you thoughts
He will always be in your mind
As the time goes on you will learn to cope
Look at your other children and you will find your hope
He needs your strength hold your head up high
Remember I will be here for if you need to cry
He is now in a better place
Now God is looking upon his face
I?m sure there?s a reason he had to go
What the reason is we do not know
Any reason that could be given we would not accept
It does not replace the life we could have kept
I know you will miss him; you?ll want to hold him real tight
But think of the memories don?t let them out of your sight
Hold on to every single memory you can
And always remember your son is a great man
