I lost you when I was 8 years old and you just 18.I wasn't ready to lose you,wasn't ready to live without you.I grew up when I lost you.Over the years so many times I wanted to know what you would think about me,my life and the people in it.Many times I thought that if I just had you there,things would be different,better.I always knew you would stand up for me when others just sat still.I have so many things to ask of you like are you proud of me?Do I do the right things?Have I become the person you wanted me to? I look at my son and wish he knew you and I know the day will come when I will have to tell him about you and how I lost you.You have been gone for the same number of years you got to live on this earth.I would trade anything just for one hour,one touch.You would have been 36 today.I spend a lot of time wondering who you would have married,what you children would have looked like.There have been many times when I knew you were there.I fell you.I love you just as much as I did and it will always be the same. Happy Birthday Ralphie.
This song makes me think of you every time I hear it.
