Words of Comfort

Remember

To the Living, I am gone
To the sorrowful, I will never return
To the angry, I was cheated
To the happy, I am at peace,
And to the faithful, I have never left.
I cannot be seen, but I can be hard,
So as you stand upon a shore,
Gazing at a beautiful sea
Remember me.
As you look in awe at a mighty forest and its grand majesty
Remember me
As you look upon a flower and admire its simplicity
Remember me
Remember me in your heart, your thoughts and your
Memories of the times we've loved, we've fought, the times
We've laughed.
For if you always think of me, I will never have gone.
 

Afterglow

I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one,
I'd like to leave an afterglow
Of smiles when life is done
I'd like to leave an echo
Whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times
And bright and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who grieve,
To dry before the sun
Of happy memories that I leave
When life is done.

 

Miss Me, But Let Me Go

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little - but not too long
And not with your head bowed low
Remember the love that was once shared
Miss me, but let me go.

For this is the journey we all must take
And each must go alone
It's all part of the master's plan
A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to the friends we know
Bear your sorrow in good deeds
Miss me, but let me go!
