THIS IS A TRIBUTE IN MEMORY OF JAMES,
The day you left and gained your wings
My heart just broke in two.
I wish you could have stayed with me
But heaven needed you.
You left me with only memories,
I love you dearly still.
No matter how much time goes by
You know I always will.
You were a very special person
With kindness in your heart
And the love we had together
Grows stronger now we're apart
I know I can not bring you back,
Although I wish it every day
But a piece of me went with you
The day you went away
