Still With Us
I wrote this 2-12-09 one of many about my my nephew Camron Paul Wilson, nickname, Blue. He was 16 when he died in a tragic accident. R.I.P Blue 11-22-87 - 7-27-2005
Still with us, your legacy, we boast about the kind of man you would be.
Still with us, wonderful memories we'll have forever
stop missing and loving you, never.
Still with us, the sound of your voice
the brightness of your smile, what I wouldn't give
for us to hang out for a while.
Still with us, the courage you had
you bestow it upon us to keep us going through all the bad
Still with us, pain and tears
we only had you for sixteen years
Still with us, the knowledge of what a true soul you were
In this world, you always knew your place
such a man, that before you left, you gave us a saving grace
The Lord took you and gave us another little boy
we know it was you, trying to give us a little joy
Still with us, is you
every day and every where
I know, because I can feel you there
When I need you
you come, I see your face
I can hear your voice
You guide me to the right choice
I can see your smile and your hands I can feel
Now I'm a believer, because your spirit is so real
What an honor to have you as our own
Can't wait to see you when I come home
