Slaughter who departed this life 5 years ago today December 17, 1944. It’s oh so lonely round the place And Tom and I are blue, It seems we are kind of nervous like And don’t know what to do. No use to try to read a bcol: To occupy the mind, Because our thoughts are on one Who was so sweet and kind. If I sit beside the fire To nap with in my chair I just some how can’t go to sleep For my Darling’s missing there. I look around the room To see if there is some mistakes, But all I see is emptyness, And all I feel is aches. There is something gnawing ’round my heart. A. dull oppressive pain, A feeling I can’t des rib?, And one hard to explain. A yearning for a vanished form, That some how should be near, But yearning only brings me pain And mist my eyes with tears. II 11118 $ his tender soft blue eyes That use to gaze in mine. Two eyes that overflowed with love, That seemed almost Divine. I miss the sound of his sweet voice, When he said Mother to me, And wonder in my heart to night Why parting has to be. It's oh so lonely here to night And Tom and I are blue. We look into each other's eyes And tears come breaking I through. It may seem kind of foolish and we're kind of childish some might say, but if you've loved a child you'll know, for our child died 5 years ago today. Sadly missed by mother and dad.
