Walk Forward

Walk Forward If I travel on ahead too soon, pause for a while and consider my going But stop not, nor fall into the time and distance between us. Gather yourself; draw in all of me that was, bind your wounds and wrap your heart with memories They will be your salve and balm; your recovery, your power. For somehow, you must now step forward. Day by day — Week by week Remember all that you taught me —strength, courage and love But don’t let the past pull you back. Linger not on our last day. Use your love to comfort. Your hands to help And walk forward Walk forward and you will find me. For we are of the same atom. The same cells —The same fibre We can never be split. Forever we’ll be joined in heart and soul and mind. Walk forward Walk forward and one day, you will find me.

I am glad that they have to walk forward to find you, which tells me you are assertive, and living your life every day, not dwelling on the past. Wise!
