sometimes I step out,
and take time to remember,
all the great times
before your last November.

I run away from all the rest,
as they stumble for strength and say you’re gone,
but we are closer now than ever
as I lay on the lawn.

you always cared to help others,
even when you were in distress,
I don’t know how you kept yourself together,
when everything else was a mess.

role model is a word,
everybody comes to use,
you are this loving person I look up to,
this probably isn’t shocking news.

so I take a deep breath in ,
gaze into the sky,
I watch a little while
then you peacefully pass by.

You’re o so bright
as you shine from miles away,
the sparkle lights up the night
as we both pray.

I keep my courage strong
as you told me to do,
I keep my head high
and stay in touch with you.

every once in a while
a tumbling tear fills my eye,
I quickly look back on the other times,
and let out a sigh.

A picture can come to mind,
that reminds me of the rest,
they stumble and say you’re gone,
but I am truly blessed.
although sorrow can take over,
I remember what you said,
nothing disconnects us,
even if we are dead.

One day we shall meet again,
because forever you are loved,
you remember what we say now,
you’re truly unforgettable.
