Living On

I dedicate this poem to all my family members who have gone on to the heavenly skies.

I cannot believe you're gone it only seems like yesterday you were still here.

But I must go on and not live in fear.

Your memory is still present to this day.

Our love for you will go on anyway.

So please continue to smile down on us.

Give us that motivation that is a plus!

I will promise not to cry.

As I see you smiling in the big blue sky.

I will never know why?

You had to go.

Only God knows.

But your presence really shows..

So I will say goodbye for now.

But we will see each other again.

Hug each other until the end.
