Goodbye Is Not Forever

Tears fell down my cheeks
My heart filled with sorrow
When you took your last breath
Knowing you won't be here tomorrow 
The lives you have touched
Span from far to near
Your strength, love, and courage
We will always hold dear
Father, grandpa, brother, uncle
And a true friend to us all
The embodiment of selflessness 
Your heart was never small 
One day we shall meet again
No matter when or how
It's not goodbye forever
It's just goodbye for now
