i am setting this memorial up for my son Joshua who passed away with something called batten's
disease he was a happy little boy and and we was very upset about him dieing he was my youngest son

I Believe

Every now and then
Soft as breath upon my skin
I feel you come back again
And it's like you haven't been
Gone a moment from my side
Like the tears were never cried
Like the hands of time are holding you and me
And with all my heart
I'm sure we're closer than we ever were
I don't have to hear or see
I've got all the proof I need
There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, I believe

Chorus:
That when you die your life goes on
It doesn't end here when you're gone
Every soul is filled with light
It never ends and if I'm right
Our love can even reach across eternity
I believe, I believe

Forever, you're a part of me
Forever, in the heart of me
And I'll hold you even longer if I can
The people who don't see the most
Say that I believe in ghosts
And if that makes me crazy, then I am
'Cause I believe

There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, I believe

Loosing My Grip

I loose my grip on reality
on each day that passes by;
I haven't a clue where I'm headed
oh how this pain makes me cry
My world is changing so quickly
and I'm loosing everything in sight;
Why can't things go back to how it used to be
so that everything would be alright

Why do we have to loose the ones we love
it's just not fair, it's just not right;
Oh why God do you take them
can't you see, I'm filled with fright

The days come and go
but the pain, it stays forever;
It never really leaves your soul
when you know, you'll no longer be together

Your heart, it's ripped wide open
and even though you try to hide;
It will break and bleed continuously
and feel as though it will never subside

I can take this pain no longer
oh how it's killing me inside;
What suffering we have to go through
when the ones we love, have died

Losing You

It hurts us so bad,
When we loose the ones we love;
Yet we all move on,
With a little push and shove.

I'm trying to let you go,
But it's killing me inside;
My pain is ever so enduring,
And doesn't want to subside.

How could I loose you,
When you meant the world to me;
My heart bleeds everyday,
When it's only you I see.

Here lies your grave,
Where words are too hard to say;
So rest in peace,
As I think of you. . .this very day.

Three years ago,
You moved on to a better place;
While I heard the news,
And hated every other face.

I never knew of your sickness,
Until it was too late;
You had gone away,
And faced your fate.

Now I say my farewell,
And leave you here;
I die inside,
With so much to fear.

♥ Imagine ♥

♥ Imagine a desert
♥ without sand
♥ Imagine an arm
♥ without a hand
♥ Imagine a butterfly
♥ without wings
♥ Imagine winter without
♥ the promise of spring
♥ Imagine night without
♥ the arrival of dawn
♥ Imagine a life spent
♥ being just a pawn
♥ Image a soul
♥ that never connects
♥ Imagine a world
♥ that always rejects
♥ Imagine eyes that
♥ do not see
♥ Imagine knowing
♥ it can never be...
♥ Imagine a touch that
♥ does not feel
♥ Imagine a heart
♥ made out of steel
♥ Imagine a body
♥ that does not yield
♥ Imagine life’s storms
♥ without a human shield
♥ Imagine a tear
♥ that never cries
♥ Imagine an ache
♥ that never dies
♥ Impossible to imagine….
♥ It’s life without you!

When God calls special children to dwell with Him above,
We mortals sometimes question the wisdom of His love.

For what heartache can compare with the death of one loved child
Who does so much to make our world seem wonderful and mild?

Perhaps God tires of calling the aged to His fold,
So He picks a rosebud before it can grow old.

God knows how much we need them, and so He takes but few
To make the land of heaven more beautiful to view.

Believing this is difficult, still somehow we must try.
The saddest word mankind knows will always be "Goodbye."

So when a dearest child departs, we who are left behind must realise:
God loves children - Angels are hard to find.

Special Angel Day - by Carmelle Gross

We do not need a special day
To bring you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you
Are very hard to find.

Each morning when we awake
We know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache
As we try to carry on.

Our hearts still ache with sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.

Our thoughts are always with you,
Your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly;
In death we love you still.

There will always be a heartache,
And often a silent tear.
But always a precious memory
Of the days when you were here.

If tears would make a staircase,
And heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you home again.

We hold you close within our hearts;
And there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives
Until we meet again.

Our family chain is broken now,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
