The Cake You Showed Me

Happy Birthday April where ever you are somewhere up in heaven flying amongst the stars Today I'll buy that cake that you said was your favorite and somehow celebrate what we meant to God I wish you could see the smile on my face somewhere in heaven I'm sure it's someplace And what ever gifts they give in Heaven in our case lets hope that I have one But always know that in my heart I would have given you the world God showed me the one and you, you were that girl but the price I needed to pay for you was totally out of this world So today I give you freedom from my hating that you left take every bit of heaven I have no more regrets

Hey John....it has been 4 years since Wallace died and 2 since Jerry died this march. a sadness that will never go away. i do think of them in heaven well and happy. Our journey we must finish and work out all our tasks.
