Written in memory of my father who passed away in 2005

.x.

Like the pages of an old history book fade with age

So shall your life fade

With time

No one will remember your name

.

x

.

Your face will not hang forever young

Among the old masterpieces at the museum

With time

No one will remember your face

.

x

.

The melody of your laugh will never sound again

Like the old symphonies

With time

No one will remember your voice

.

x

.

Your thoughts and your dreams were never recorded

And studied like the great philosophers of old

With time

No one will know you existed

.

x

.

But I was there, and I remember.

Man that was so simple, yet so touching. A great concept and one I've played with a few times myself, but never been able to put into words.

He must have been a great guy to have brought up a lovely kiddo like you =)

Haha why thank you squall. And yes, yes he was. I completely idolized him and I was always "daddies little girl". I have never seen the church as full as it was on his funeral, completely packed and I think it can hold around 300 people or so. I was really nice to know that so many people had known him and cared.

I still miss him every day and I don't think I'll ever stop.

Sorry to hear about your mom Jamie. It's always hard to loose someone close and I can't imagine what it would be like to loose someone during a holiday like christmas. It's times like that that I miss my dad the most.

Oh wow!

I've never suffered this personally yet, but it's how I've always imagined I will feel when it happens.

Sometimes the simplest verses can be extremely powerful.
