When I am gone,
And you must stay,
Do not weep or mourn,
Nor waste a single day.
Think of me not as gone,
But gone instead to make the way.
Pass your days without me in quite contentment,
Among the special things and loved ones that remain.
Find peace and comfort from past times we have spent,
Knowing soon we will be together again.
And should a lonely moment ever start,
To find its way into your heart,
Simply smile and remember me,
For surely in your heart,
I will never cease to be,
When you pause to think of me. &
