Music Monday: Tears in Heaven
Whenever I hear Eric Clapton’s Tears in Heaven, it breaks my heart a little. It just reminds me how devastated my dad was when my brother died. He was 15 when he passed away. He’s my dad’s favorite. He was the last one to whisper in my brother’s ear how much we loved him. He breathed his last after that.
I was there when it happened. It was very vivid to me until now, 12 years after. I still get choked a little when I reminisce, especially when I hear Tears in Heaven.
Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven…
My dad was never the same after that. I know he will forever carry in his heart the loss of his favorite son.

Brilliant song, and I’m not really into that genre!
