I am Still Near

Please don’t remember only

The day I had to leave

Or let my final moment

Be the story that you grieve

Remember all the laughter

The ordinary days,

The love we shared so freely

In quiet, single ways

I know your heart is aching

I know you miss me too,

Bu I am not as far away

As it may seem to you.

I live within the memories

That time can never take

Within the love still left behind

In every heart I shaped.

So, speak my name with gentleness,

Let stories bring a smile,

And when the tears come, let them fall,

Then rest with them awhile.

Do not think you must be strong

Every single day

Grief is just love reaching out

When words get in the way.

And though my life on earth is done,

My love has not gone too,

For every life I touched still holds

A piece of what is true.

So, carry me with tenderness

But let your heart live too.

For every step you take in love

Keeps part of me with you.
