Afterglow

Your words they resound within the breeze Fluttering through the fields of tall and withered trees Where the radiant sunlight freely flows Your strength as fierce as the vibrant morning glow A whisper of goodbye that lingers deep within A story that travels onward as you start again To a brand new day of purpose that serves to remind You rest within the hearts of those you will never have to find We celebrate the gift of your life, as you fade into the horizon The weight that once felt heavy, slowly begins to lighten A void that will remain vacant, though your light still illuminates Guided home to a place of infinite beauty, just beyond heavens gates
