Memory Book

What if You Knew

What If You Knew
What if you knew,
Knew that all these words are true?
Then maybe you could see,
It is your death that makes me blue.

What if you knew,
Knew that every breath I take,
Comes with a decision,
One you help me make?

What if you knew,
Knew that with every song I hear,
Reminds me of a memory,
A thought that brings a tear?

What if you knew,
Knew that I loved you with all my heart?
You would then truly know,
Nothing can tear us apart.

What if you knew,
Knew that you truly are my twin,
That no matter what happens next,
With me you always win?

What if you knew,
Knew that even though you’ve past away,
I can’t wait to join you,
Join you again in Heaven someday?

Dedicated to Aayla Redfern.
