Passed On

Time has passed,
Those who had to go have gone, 
Leaving behind all that was theirs,
For their family heirs. 

What did the heirs do? 
They divided the things among, 
They forgot that their hearts and souls 
Were clung.

Long time since buried or burnt,
But don't forget they are still with us.
How dare you divide their property,
The one they left with love.
