As we wake up in the morningand your not here to see,we grasp for some reality...that our dreams can never be.We'll bake a cake & buy balloons,...we'll burn a candle too.We'll play your music, look at picturesand shed some tears for you.We'll imagine what the day would bring,if only you weren't gone.You'd run and laugh, and jump about,we'd sing the birthday song.You should be here today,excited as can be...Sifting through the toys and wrap,bursting forth with glee...But God had other plans for you,these plans, we'll never know.Today, the candle burns,...with no tiny lips to blow.We'll do our best to make it through,this day we meet with dread.We'll do this all for you, my love...on this road of grief we tread.So on this day... my precious daughter,You're birthday number one...your in our hearts and in our thoughts....as we send our love to you.
This candle was first lit on the 11th of May 2011 and will burn for 87 years and 12 days.
