Goodbye

Today is the day 
We say our final goodbye 
May you forever rest in peace 
In Gods lands in the sky 
Now tears of sorrow 
Slip from our face 
With only memories of you 
Left to embrace
Expression is difficult 
And words not always there 
But we your family 
Have always cared 
And as you look down 
From heaven above 
Please always know 
That you were loved
