I surely would if I could.

You were lifted up to heavenly paradise...

I would fly every mile in the universe to see you again ...I surely would if I could.

I would hold you in my loving arms to touch your head...once more. I surely would if I could...

I would travel the mighty seas to find every drop in the ocean. I would dry your tears and wipe away your fears...I surely would if I could. 

I would go back in a millisecond to save you...I would clean your dirty feet with the gentlest of touches. I would change your destiny...I surely would if I could. 

I was wrong to say, nothing could hurt me. Losing you my darling...lost me. 

Whenever I cry, I ask myself why.

Why did you stay with him?  

Why did you take his hate and worthless love?

Why did you choose such an evil man?

You were lifted up to heavenly paradise...

I would fly every mile in the universe to see you again ...I surely would if I could.

He got a new Facebook for what he took.

We got a gravestone where all good angels have flown.

Life isn't fair they say...but on that day....death took you away. 

His evil hands wrapped around your neck in front of your son...Then it was final , complete and all done. 

This is how I feel lost in this injustice of the surreal.

I would hold you in my loving arms to touch your head...once more. I surely would if I could...

I would travel the mighty seas to find every drop in the ocean. I would dry your tears and wipe away your fears...I surely would if I could. 

There is no help or justice for you or I.

There is only healing to help others...

You know darling...all the hurting sisters and brothers.

It will never be goodbye between you and I. God will see us through...till we hug again...I promise. 

I would go back in a millisecond to save you...I would clean your dirty feet with the gentlest of touches. I would change your destiny...I surely would if I could. 

You changed mine in that moment of going to paradise...And the angels said, everything will be okay. I love you and I miss you. Happy birthday to us.
