Take Heed

If I leave before you do These words you must try to heed Remember them forever So from your grief you will be freed I know that you will miss me here And life will not be the same But "your "candle has not gone out like mine It's just a flickering of your flame  Live life to its fullest  Don't let sadness anchor your heart Be grateful for the time we had Not our time apart Find comfort in your memories Of our amazing life  together  I know we expected it never to end And "we" would be forever  Our time has come for changes Time to do it on your own I know it will be difficult for you both And you will feel alone Please try and enjoy your life Without me by your side Enjoy all that life has to offer you Don't let sadness keep you preoccupied Life is way too precious  Not to enjoy each and everyday  Laugh ,have fun, be silly Please don't waste your time away I was loved so deeply Loved by the best Had my two special boys My life was truly blessed Take care of each other My beautiful family Rejoice and laugh together About the nutty memories of me Remember all the happiness we shared The laughter and the love Know we will be together again Beyond the clouds above LOVE YOU BOTH ETERNALLY ....

Ok, I will admit. I got misty eyes reading this and it help me put in perspective my second mother passing. Anyone who has lost someone will not read this without a dry eye. Thank you for this poem. Words like these help.....
