You're Not Here

Ok, one personal favor for my brother ...hihi, hope you like it!
XOXO Femke

You're not here

You write a letter every two weeks, it says:




"Everything is fine my love, everything is great, you'd love it too,
Sometimes I miss your pretty face, but I know we will see each other soon."

I write you back, I say:
“I miss you, hope you're happy where you are, and I'm alright,
Don’t think about me, life is short, take your change, I am sure we'll meet again."

You’re not here when I need you the most,
Wandering through my mind like a ghost.
You’ve seen everything, so many stories to tell,
But you're not here when I need you the most.

You write a postcard every month, you say:
“You don't have time to write or time to call, but you're alright
Is it still raining is it still cold? Here the weather is just fine."

I try to call you, you won't answer,
But you'll be home in a few months; I'll see you then,
I hope you'll send me a letter, send me some love; I hope you're still the same.

You’re not here when I need you the most,
Wandering through my mind like a ghost.
You’ve seen everything, so many stories to tell,
But you're not here when I need you the most.

Mooi nummer!

Het is leuk om te horen hoe je de naam van je broer echt heel Nederlands uitspreekt in het goede Engels dat je spreekt!

Leuk om te horen :)

Femke , . , youre allready a poet; and not the least . (watch out for selfcontend , overbodige remark i think! ) One thing to set your mind maybe alittle at ease : you can be sure you got more ( steph) fathers , , you're heard ! A specialy when you're weary and feel worne out .Lyrics and song:. match . No arroganceI'm not . wanna give support and helping hand ) No objections to the following ? love from a "steph"father : Ton**** maybe he's not there ; but we're hear .
