You’ve been with me
I believe
no amount of time will pass
without you near.
Remorse in the beginning
crying that will cease
becoming memories of laughter and play
things talked about shown, learned
and explained.
No farther away
than a thought in my head
for I see your voice speaking
your eyes filled with kindness
no dread.
I know I can go forward
I know I’ll be ok
for you’ll be with me
forever
forever and a day.
