You were the person who taught me that love Is about giving from the heart, Without a second thought Love that is a part of every moment The inspiration for joy and peace The spark of hope that dreams And believes… Love is the answer each of us needs When the heart is shattered Broken beyond description Filled with despair and pain Capable of changing everything You were the person who was honest and kind You gave from the heart instead of the mind Sincere and serene, you patiently tried To provide sympathy and empathy When I felt like I would never be Filled with the hope and love Of my dreams You were the person who taught me that love Is about giving from the heart Without a second thought And I’m filled with joy because I’m giving from the heart Without a second thought… When I say… I will always love you
