As Time Fades

As Time Fades
by Rebecca Morris
 
when we lose someone precious time begins to stand still
our heart begins to ache and theres an element of our lives missing that no-one else can fill
we question things and ask god why
and try to understand why it was me that had to die
but we forget that when i died part of me continued to live
for each of you has a piece of me that i willingly give
and as time fades, and you begin to turn the page
my life begins again through memories from youth to old age
as you take a stroll with me down memory lane
you’ll realise a part of me will always remain
you’ll laugh with happiness and cry tears of sorrow
wishing we could still have tomorrow
and as the weeks turn to years
ill be watching over you taking away your worries and fears
ill heal the heart and help the pain to ease
ill be the air passing by during a summers breeze
ill be the light that still continues to shine bright
ill be the beauty in the sunset as day turns to night
ill be the person that walks beside you even though you can not see
i will always be with you and i will always be me
so as time fades remember life still goes on
and even though you can not see me , i’m never really gone
