It's been fifteen years
That you said goodbye
And through the years
Each now and than I cry
I have come to terms
It was your time to go
Though I miss you so
Memories keep me warm
I miss you when I'm sick
When I'm in need of care
I just imagine you're there
Coz you still have my back
When it is my birthday
You'd always remember
Now it's just another day
Each 26th September
I'll cherish you for always
Till the end of my own days
But I'm looking for the day
That I'd be able to say
All the things I never did
For giving me all I needed
For planting in me a seed
That forever had me guided
(Aletta Elizabeth Eksteen (Nee Louw)
