Gone but not forgotten

In silent hours, we feel the space,
The quiet ache, the empty place.
Your laughter now a distant sound,
A cherished echo that surrounds.

The world was brighter with your light,
Now shadowed by this endless night.
Each moment shared, each tender touch,
We miss you dearly, oh, so much.

Your presence stays, so calm, so near,
in every prayer. In every tear
Though you have left, you're in our soul,
Our love remains, our hearts stay whole

In every cloud that passes by 
We search for you up in the sky 
Yet in our hearts, you’ll always stay,
Forever loved, in every way.

Though my time on earth has passed
Know my love will forever last 
In memories, you'll find me near,
Each prayer you make, I’ll always hear 

When fear creeps in, seeking to claim,
Know I am with you, forever the same.
In the darkest hours, when shadows appear,
I will be there, to cast out fear.

With every breath, with all of my heart,
I hold you close, though far apart.
The light you seek, I send from above,
Guiding you gently, wrapped in my love.

No matter the time, no matter the place,
I’ll be your hope, your eternal grace.
Forever beside you, through every test,
In spirit, I stand with you — always at rest

Though grief weighs heavy on your heart,?Know this, my love , we're not apart.?Beyond the veil, in skies so bright,?I’ll wait for you in Heaven's light.

In time, your tears will fade to grace,?when we reunite in the holiest place.
Until that time, I will never be far,
Forever, whenever, wherever you are
