IIHer words, in his song
What she wrote about Adam, word for word, and the lines it became.
-
Who he was
Tall patient helpful thoughtful respectful
In the song 0:51Grocery shopping every aisle, so respectful and so calm
A patient, gentle giant, a quiet comforter
-
A memory
his eyes that held so much emotions in them the quietness of his presence… the way he would tear down homes stores and rebuild them
In the song 0:26Your quiet presence bringing life whenever we would talk
Tearing down the old walls, building up the new
With eyes that held so much emotion, taking in it all
-
What she misses
his ability to bring life to the earth the vibrant colors in the plants… his deep low voice
In the song 0:21You had a deep, low voice, your style, your laugh, your walk
I miss you gardening out back, the colors in the dirt
-
What she misses
our days of togetherness… his music his hands the way he towered over me with so much emotion
In the song 1:21If I could hear your music and hold you close anew
I remember how you’d tower over me, so tall
Our days of simple togetherness are what I miss the most
-
His legacy
the nurturing of plants gardens buildings animals and me… what he wanted for us from me and our kids was heart warmin
In the song 1:12You nurtured every garden, every building, every seed
With heartwarming dreams for our children and me
-
His legacy
I carry the lessons to love like God wants us to I didn’t look or see my Adam the way people see him
In the song 1:02They didn't see my Adam, the man you truly were
I carry all your lessons to love the way God planned
-
Her message to him
I wish I would’ve, not been the old me… the 2 situations that knocked me off my feet .I know in my heart I’d be with you now… no sorrys just I love yous and thankyous
In the song 1:28There’d be no more sorrys, just I love yous and thank yous
I wish I hadn't been the old me, I wish I'd led the way
Two heavy situations knocked me right off of my feet
But I know I'd still be with you if our paths could just repeat
About 3 minutes of gentle questions about them, in your own words.
IIIAdam’s story
Adam was tall, patient, helpful, thoughtful and respectful. She called him “My favorite Gardner, painter, chef.”
He was amazing at gardening and painting and rebuilding, tearing down houses and stores and putting them back up. She misses “his ability to bring life to the earth the vibrant colors in the plants.”
He also had a past where he was abused a lot, and he became quiet and troubled. But “he always had such a sweet presence about him.”
She remembers his texts, his hands, his stories of pain and his tears, and “his eyes that held so much emotions in them.” He kept her calm. She remembers the way he stood cooking at the stove, and his laughter.
She misses his deep low voice, his music, his care for animals and the food he cooked. She misses the way he towered over her, and the way he would come to her when he apologized.
“I know in my heart I’d be with you now”
What she wrote to him
She carries his lessons “to love like God wants us to.” People did not see her Adam the way she did: “he was truly and really a great guy.”
“It just feels like he’s here again, and I want him to know how I really feel about him”
