I Died
I died, and with me all that I had known
My memories and dreams, now turned to dust
The world I loved, now empty and alone
A life once lived, now gone without a fuss
But in the quiet stillness of the night
I hear a voice that whispers in my ear
Your legacy will always shine so bright
For all the love and kindness that you share
And so, though I have left this mortal plane
My spirit lingers on, forevermore
In every heart that I have touched, I reign
A beacon of hope, and love, and more
So let not tears of sorrow cloud your eye
For I am with you, always, in the sky.
