Staying strong

Standard

Saturday 27th August
  

Staying strong is what I do

Staying strong is what you see

But deep down, behind the mask

The pain is slowly consuming me.

  

Holding onto the good is what I do

Holding onto the good is what you see

With so many wonderful memories

My precious Angel is now flying free.

  

Never falling apart is what I do

Never falling apart is what you see

Even though my heart is broken

I know in heaven you’re pain-free.

  

Love you forever sweetheart

Even though we’re far apart.

Missing you like crazy

Precious Angel baby.
