(This is dedicated to all the mothers enduring the
  daily pain of having a missing child.............
           and to my son, Andy)


        So many years I took care of you....
Holding your hand, and helping you through the
                hard times....
        We didn't have much but each other....
Why didn't you at least say good-bye?
        I think of you..My heart starts to cry..
               It's been forever....
    But never knowing keeps me going......

                    Am I?
        Ever gonna see your face again?
    Will you leave without a trace again?
    And will the sun come up tomorrow?
                    Am I?
        Ever gonna see you smile again?
    Get a second chance to be your friend?
        What I'd give to see your face,
                     again........

        I can't deny...I hurt over you.....
    I don't know why things stay like they do,
             Where are we going?
        We live for the moment, no knowing....
    You went away, but I can't set you free...
        I wonder if you still think of me..
             No easy answer......
        Time keeps passing, and I keep asking:

                    Am I?
        Ever gonna see your face again?
    Will you leave without a trace again?
    And will the sun come up tomorrow?
                    Am I?
        Ever gonna see you smile again?
    Get a second chance just to be your friend?
        What I'd give to see your face again.....
                     Oh........
        What I'd give to see your face again.....

Thank you Severn.....

      I wasn't sure about posting this, but
who better to share with than a wonderful
group whom I am getting to enjoy more every
day.

      I'm a songwriter, and this is actually
a song that I do onstage, in the hopes that
it will ease someone else's pain, not just
mine....

     I sincerely appreciate your feedback
         and also your loving support....

               ~~~Sunny1~~~

Wow, I cannot imagine the pain.
If just reading your words makes me feel the way I do...I cannot imagine actually going through it.
You have spoken to my heart, and it answers, "I'll try to understand."

Very well written. I understand your pain and I feel for you.
My nephew used to do this after he became 30 years old.Chemical imbalance brought on by stress.He was always such a sweet,sweet boy!
Hang in there!    I am sure this helps others in your same pain.
