In the stillness of the night, a memory glows,
September whispers where the soft moon flows.
Two AM’s embrace, a gentle sigh,
It’s your birthday, love, beneath the vast sky.
Sixteen years have drifted, yet love remains,
In the heart’s quiet chambers, where joy intertwines with pains.
A father’s laughter lingers, a warm, sweet refrain,
In every cherished moment, your spirit sustains.
You were the anchor, a beacon of light,
With hardworking hands that made everything right.
A loving husband, whose heart knew no bounds,
In the garden of our lives, your love still resounds.
I remember the days when you’d chase our dear child,
Her laughter like music, her spirit so wild.
You’d lift her up high, both of you in bliss,
In those fleeting moments, life was pure happiness.
Now I stand in shadows where memories play,
With our daughter, who’s grown day by day.
I speak of your kindness, your strength, your grace,
In every shared story, I see your face.
Though you are not here, your love guides our way,
In each joyful tear that falls on this day.
I tell her of you, of your dreams and your fight,
Of the man who brought warmth to the coldest of nights.
So here in the silence, I lift up a prayer,
To the love that we cherished, to the moments we shared.
You’ll always be with us, in laughter and tears,
In the fabric of our lives, you dissolve all our fears.
On this birthday, dear love, I send you a kiss,
For the memories we forged, the moments of bliss.
In the quiet of my heart, your spirit will stay,
Forever our guide, in each passing day.
With every breath, I’ll honor your name,
In the legacy of love, you’ll always remain.
So here’s to you, my heart, my dear,
In the still of the night, I feel you near.
