For You Tommy

Patricia Gomillion 1965 (Teaneck,New Jersey)



Tonight I cried, it was for you. My love is deep, my love is true. You were my brother and my friend. I'll love you now as I loved you then. You may be gone in body, but your spirit and memories live on forever imprinted in the pages of my mind. Some day I'm sure we will meet again. And I'll wait until then to see you again .Only time will tell when. There were promises I made to you. I'll try my best to see them through. I will never forget you and you know I'd never try. Life goes on and so must I. I'll love you forever. My Brother, My Friend, My Tommy.
