“TELL’EM ABOUT ME”

THE LEGACY CAN ONLY LIVE ON THROUGH YOU,

TELL THEM ABOUT ME AND ALL WE’VE BEEN THROUGH,

ALL THE STORIES, ALL THE HURT, LIES, PAIN, AND HAPPY TIMES TOO,

DON’T BOTHER TO EMBELLISH – SIMPLY TELL THE RAW TRUTH,

WHO I WAS, AND ALL THAT I AM,

MORE THAN A FATHER, SON, BROTHER, AND HUSBAND,

TO THE VERY FEW I EVER CALLED AS FRIENDS,

TELL MY STORY TO ALL OF THEM,

LET ALL  YOU COME IN CONTACT WITH FEEL AND KNOW MY PRESENCE,

IT LIVES WITHIN THE THINGS YOU WERE TAUGHT – HOW YOU WERE RAISED TO BE A GENTLEMAN,

SHOW THEM ALL THE RESPECT YOU WILL EARN, BUT AT THE SAME TIME DEMAND,

DADDY WOULDN’T EVER ALLOW ANYONE ATTEMPT TO RAISE NOR LAY THEIR HANDS,

EVERYTHING MAY NOT HAVE TURNED OUT AS WE HAD PLANNED,

JUST KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU DEARLY AND LIVE WITHIN YOU THROUGH THE ACTIONS YOU CARRY ON AND TO YOUR VERY OWN KIDS EXPAND, 

SO YOU DON’T MISINTERPRET NOR MISUNDERSTAND,

I’VE OBTAINED WINGS A LITTLE EARLIER AND YES I KNOW IT WAS UNPLANNED,

MY HEART AND SOUL YOU DO SO COMMAND,

 I AM SO HAPPY THAT WE DIDN’T ALLOW TIME TO PASS US BY AND SPENT EVERY HOUR UNTIL THERE WAS NO MORE SAND, 

YOU CONTINUE LIVING MY LOVE AND DO ALL THAT YOU CAN, 

KNOW THAT EVERY TIME YOU TELL MY STORY IT IS OUR STORY IN ACTUALITY BECAUSE BY MY SIDE YOU WERE ALWAYS AND ALWAYS DID YOU STAND, 

TELL’EM ABOUT ME AND THAT I LOVE ALL OF THEM, 

I AM ALWAYS BESIDE YOU MY LOVE, I LOVE YOU ALWAYS HERE, NOW, AND UNTIL I SEE YOU AGAIN.
