Because Of You

I still remember the day you left.
I think about it all the time
and it hurts like hell.
I miss you so much
and it's so hard without you.
I have no one to hold me
and make me laugh,
just a pillow to cry on
and a teddy bear to hug tight
in place of you.
They could never replace you,
nothing could,
but they will do until
I can see you again.

I know you are in heaven
and I say a prayer every night
that Jesus will take good care of you.
I know he takes better care
than we ever could.
Even though I miss you,
I'm glad you are in heaven
and not this hell.
I'm happy that you didn't suffer,
and I know you are better off
than we are.
I wish you were here,
but now that you've been to heaven,
I could never wish you back
to this dreadful world.

You were never ours,
God just let us borrow you.
You are his child and it's
time he called you home.
This world is a nicer place
because you were in it
and I'm a better person
because you loved me.
I know that heaven
is a little prettier
and a lot funnier
because you are there
and that is your home now.
To picture you making Jesus laugh
brings a smile to my face
and a new light to my day.
I love you so much,
and I know you are watching over me,
and you love me too.
