A letter to a fallen friend…

03Mar10

Little did we know that morning, that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone; for part of us went with you the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide, and though we cannot see you, you are always by our side. Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Forever and always, you’ll be in my heart. Christopher Paul James Bowler. I wish you were here, to listen to me moan. I wish you were here to hold my hand, and hold me close. I wish you were here to make me smile and make me laugh. I wish you were here, to just experience life with me.

You’ve given me strength, you’ve given me hope, you’ve taught me how to love. You’ve left a huge hole in my life, and in my heart.

Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there, I do not sleep.

Forever those words will stay in my mind, so hard to say, so hard to hear. Difficult to accept. To see your grave and not cry is hard. To think of you being somewhere better is much easier. I know you’re up there someone, looking down on me. You live on, through everyone you knew.

I’ll see you in my dreams. And I’ll hold you in my dreams. Someone took you right out of my arms. Still I feel the thrill of your charms.

Lips that once were mine. Tender eyes that shine. They will light my way tonight. I’ll see you in my dreams

Oh, someone took you right out of my arms. Still I feel the thrill of your charms

Lips that once were mine. Tender eyes that shine. They will light my way tonight.I’ll see you in my dreams

I do see you in my dreams. I see you in the people around me. I feel your warmth through the love of others. I hold your ring between my fingers, and I’m reminded that you’re still here and my life goes on.
I’m proud to have known you. I’m proud to have been able to call you my best friend. You’re my angel. My muffin, my Indiana. x
