Love

My heart still aches very much. They say it takes time but after one year the pain is just as horrible as if she left today.

Little by little as my time passes here on earth, it will bring me closer to her and we will be together again.

Brandi this is for you. My princess…

I Will Remember You
When first we met,
You were so tiny and so lonely,
But not for long . . .
You gave your little life to me;
And what a life it was!
When you were gone,
I felt so tiny and so lonely,
Until I realized that separation was but a dream:
Beyond expression is my love for you;
Words fail me;
For in my mind all memories are alive,
And in my heart your image is deeply etched;
And for as long as I’m aware of myself
I will remember you . . .

In Loving Memory of Brandi Alvarado
4/27/1997 – 6/12/2009

I miss the crying sound you made every time I entered the room. I still hear you.

Love you always,
Mario Alvarado

Brandi, please don’t mourn for me
I’m still here, though you don’t see.
I’m right by your side each night and day
and within your heart I long to stay.

My body is gone but I’m always near.
I’m everything you feel, see or hear.
My spirit is free, but I’ll never depart
as long as you keep me alive in your heart.

I’ll never wander out of your sight-
I’m the brightest star on a summer night.
I’ll never be beyond your reach-
I’m the warm moist sand when you’re at the beach.

I’m the colorful leaves when fall comes around
and the pure white snow that blankets the ground.
I’m the beautiful flowers of which you’re so fond,
The clear cool water in a quiet pond.

I’m the first bright blossom you’ll see in the spring,
The first warm raindrop that April will bring.
I’m the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine,
and you’ll see that the face in the moon is mine.

When you start thinking there’s no one to love you,
you can talk to me through the Lord above you.
I’ll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees,
and you’ll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze.

I’m the hot salty tears that flow when you weep
and the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep.
I’m the smile you see on a baby’s face.
Just look for me, Brandi, I’m everyplace!

Happy Birthday Brandi girl.
You would have been thirteen years old today on earth
but still are in my heart and with the lord.
I’ll love you forever.

Mario

I miss you terribly and think of you everyday. Tears flow regularly to this day. I dedicate these poems to you, to us. Merry Christmas Brandi now and every year. I LOVE YOU.

The tree is all trimmed.
The gifts are all wrapped.
The hymns are all sung,
Ant the travel plans mapped.

And still there’s a sadness
That lies in your heart,
For a dog that was lost
And a love now apart.

A stocking is missing,
With toys and a treat.
A lap is now empty,
A space at your feet.

Yet remember this season
God’s small gift to you,
Wonderful memories
To treasure life through.

To My Best Friend Brandi

The day they laid you down to sleep
I prayed to the Lord; your soul he’ll keep
Until the appointed day and time
when together we’ll meet; and all will be fine

With all God’s; creatures great and small
go run and play now, have a ball
No more aches; and no more pain
just bright sunshine; no more rain

Rest in peace; for now best friend
cradled in God’s arms; to the end
Dream of that special; day and time
when we’ll meet at the Bridge; one last time

Although we’ll be separated; for a long time
we’ll be together then; and all will be fine
We’ll cross Rainbow Bridge; side by side
with a soft warm feeling; deep down inside

Once again then; all will be fine
we’re together forever; till the end of time

Marty & Family

I will always remember Brandi ‘coz she was always the first one by the door when I arrive. In due time, the pain will go away, but not the good memories. She will always be remembered.
