Sorrow

My passing is but temporary
For we will meet again
And please don't question as to why
You'll never understand

For with my passing I brought life
That will live on through the years
May the kindness that I shared with all
Help wipe away your tears

I remain with you in many ways
Simply look into the eyes
Of those I've helped I hope your proud
My leaving's not goodbye

It wasn't for the lack of love
So never think that way
Sometimes the struggles just too much
I still love you to this day

And know that in my darkest hour
A light came down to me
To take my hand and guide me home
From the pain I now am free
