My Silent Melody

My silent melody 
By Michelle Morris

You were always the best of them:
Good and kind and true;
No one could ever replace
the essence of all that is you. 

You were always the righteous one:
As good as gold and pure;
No one could ever emulate
such passion and allure. 

You were always the one
that was there for everyone else;
No one could ever replace
your smiles, kind words and help. 

You were always the life
of every room you walked into;
No one could replace
that energy, light and mood. 

You were, you were and 
are no more -
Now only memories are left, 
such tearful mourning. 

You were, you were, 
and are always remembered -
Every single day in heart's
longing and surrender.

You were, you were, and
will always be -
You'll be forever
my silent melody.

The good always go first, it's like they're needed elsewhere.
