I knew what this poem was about before you wrote the end part...
It's well written heartfelt it reminded me about a song
I wrote about this painful suject from a father perspective..
I hope you dont' mind me putting in your post.
called "I wonder"
You never forget......
[D] I wonder what you would look like now [G]would you stand straight and [A]tall.
[D] Yes I wonder what you would look like now [G]would you love us [A]all.
[Bm] And in my [A]thoughts [G]you stand in front[A] me.
[Bm] And you [A] face [G]I imagine that I can[A]see.
[D]Yes I wonder what you would look like now[G] I I guess [A7sus4] I will nev[A]er[D]know.
[D]As my mind recalls the past [G]of many years[A] ago.
[D] I was so much young then[G]and perhaps my loss didn’t [A]show.
[Bm]But now [A] I realise[G]just what you would have meant [A]to me.
[Bm]Now this[A] little emptiness[G] will never let me[A] be.
[D]Yes I wonder what you would look like now[G] I guess[A7sus4] I will nev[A]er[D]know.
[D]Down through the years[G]I still can remember[A] tears.
[D]As we came to terms[G] and excepted our worst[A] fears.
[Bm]You were the[A] first[G] an expression of our[A] love.
[Bm]But you were taken [A]from us[G] perhaps on a whim from God[A] above.
[D]Yes I wonder what you would look like now[G]I guess[A7sus4]I will nev[A]er[D]know.
[D]As time has raced us by[G]the hurt has become a just [A]sigh
[D]Just a little memory to have to hold[G]to take until I[A]die
[Bm]You are still [A]with me [G]you have never left my [A]mind.
[Bm]You were[A] something[G] that wasn’t[A] to shine.
[D]Yes I wonder what you would look like now[G] I guess[A7sus4]I wasn’t meant[A] to[D]know.
