Someone Is Missing At Christmas

Someone Is Missing At Christmas


Someone is missing at Christmas
Someone I loved all my life
Someone I played with and laughed all night long
Someone I think of when I hear that song

Someone is missing at Christmas

Someone has left me alone

Someone so close even though we’re apart

Someone who’d finished the sentence I’d start

Someone whose love is my favorite gift

Someone whose presence is my Christmas wish

Someone who always was here

Someone is missing this year

Candlelit snapshots of Christmases gone by

You in your favorite chair

Memories like snowflakes melt in my eyes

I look and you’re not sitting there

Someone whose love is my favorite gift

Someone whose presence is my Christmas wish

Someone is missing at Christmas

Wait… someone is touching my heart…

Someone has heard me and answered my call

Someone I love is not missing at all

Someone is with me at Christmas Someone’s right here in my heart

Someone I love is with me this Christmas

And will be each Christmas to come!

The picture below is framed on my counter. Every time I made cookies you were there, every time I grabbed my puppy chow, (you loved so much) you were there, every time I fixed an ornament at the counter, you were there, every time I turned on my Grinch soundtrack in the radio, you were there. It was the only way I could feel like I did that night you kids sat at the table with the music playing, me cooking, and you guys just being you. Merry Christmas Tyler. As I sat here crying looking through all these pictures, I realized dang TyTy we had a rough couple years, but we really did make the best of it TyTy. We did. These pictures and memories show it.

Merry Christmas Tyler. Mamma has been walking with you so wrapped up in her heart this year. I love you TyTy.
