So tell me why you had to leave,
just why you couldn't stay;
Your time cut short upon this earth,
just wish for one more day!
You made your mark before you left,
a place inside my heart;
An empty space that can't be filled
so long as we're apart!
I try so hard to be so strong,
so lonely now it seems;
What's harder than to be alone-
to live with shattered dreams!
Your memory fills my mind each day,
my mind is all a buzz;
I cherish so but one small thing,
this photo of just us!
I carry it so close to me,
I'll never let it go;
And every time I take a glance,
your beauty still aglow!
It's all I've left of you for now,
my princess and best friend;
Until that day at Heaven's gates
I'll hold you once again!
You've always been my Angel girl,
but now within my dreams;
I see you soaring high and free
since now you've got your wings!
I found it an incredible honor to be asked by a friend of mine to pen the words of a tribute to him and his precious Angel whom was taken Home to be with The Lord earlier this year!! Fly high Allisa Marie!! You are truly your daddy's Angel Girl!!
