Your Remembered Song

I wrote the following after losing close family members in a very short period of time. I hope that if you are in a state of grief or if you are in the healing process, these words provide comfort.

Does pain engulf you all daylong?
Have tears replaced your spirit strong?
If smiles seem forever gone,
Remember, love’s sweet song…

They are with us even now my friends,
Their eternal spirits - transcends.
For love so brilliant never ends,
Remember - love defends!

Are you captured in grief’s dark despair?
Or are you lost in solitaire?
Has time frozen your gift to repair…
Remember love’s evening prayer:

I am your loved one, and I still care.
In every breath of air, I am there.
In the songs you sing, I share.
In the problems of your heart, I am aware.

I know it is unfair.

I am your remembered song,
Your love so strong,
Your evening prayer,
Your every breath, held with care.

Your love not gone…
I am… Your remembered song.
