They are not dead,
Who leave us this great heritage of remembering joy.

They still live in our hearts,
In the happiness we knew, in the dreams we shared.

They still breathe,
In the lingering fragrance,windblown, from their favourite flowers.

They still smile in the moonlight’s silver,
And laugh in the sunlight’s sparking gold.

They still speak in the echoes of the words we’ve heard them say again and again.

They still move,
In the rhythm of waving grasses, in the dance of the tossing branches.

They are not dead;
Their memory is warm in our hearts, comfort in our sorrow.

They are not apart from us, but part of us,

For love is eternal,
And those we love shall be with us throughout all eternity.

Weve known lots of pleasure
At times endured pain
Weve lived in the sunshine
And walked in the rain

♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥

But now were seperated
And for a time apart
But i am not alone
Youre forever in my heart

♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥

Death always seems so sudden
And it is always sure
But what is oft forgotten
Its not without a cure

♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥

There will be times when you miss me
I sort of hope you do
But smile when you think of me
For ill be waiting for you

I Said A Prayer For You Today

I said a prayer for you today
And know God must have heard.
I felt the answer in my heart
Although He spoke no word!

I didn't ask for wealth or fame
(I knew you wouldn't mind).
I asked him to send treasures
Of a far more lasting kind!

I asked that He be near you
At the start of each new day;
To grant you health and blessings
And friends to share your way!

I asked for happiness for you
In all things great and small.
But it was for His loving care
I prayed the most of all!

Where Were You
� By Sean S. Manley

Where were you when I needed a helping hand?
Especially those times when it was hard to stand.
Where were you when I needed someone to hold me?
The times that I stress so hard I can hardly see?
Where were you those times I was in love?
When all I needed was help from above?
Where were you when I asked for your help?
Things got so hard; it was bad for my health.
Where were you those nights I cried myself to sleep?
When my heart hurt so bad that I felt every beat.
Where were you when I needed your light?
To shine on my path when I walked at night.
Where were you all those times I asked for advice?
It seems like my life is just a throw of the dice.
Where were you in my life when I needed a friend?
Someone I could count on all the way to the end.
Where were you when I got in those fights?
You could have stopped me to show me what's right.
Where are you now when I am down on my knees?
Asking for forgiveness, even adding a please!
I think I can feel, your hand on my shoulders, but I have had that feeling before, now I am older.
My faith is so weakened by what you have, or have not done, that I need a revival to show me the sun.
Where were you then, and where are you now?
Show me the light, if you truly art thou.

♥ MISS YOU EVERY DAY. ♥

No words I write can ever say ♥
how much I miss you everyday. ♥
As time goes by, the loneliness grows ♥,
How I miss you, nobody knows. ♥
I think of you in silence, ♥
I often speak your name.
But all I have are memories, ♥
And a photo in a frame.
No one sees me weep. ♥
But the love I have for you, ♥
Is in my heart, and mine to keep. ♥
I have never stopped loving you
and I know I never will.
Deep inside my heart, ♥
You are with me still.
Heartaches, this world are many, ♥
But mine is worse than any. ♥
My heart still aches, as I whisper low, ♥
"I need you... and miss you so. ♥"
The things we feel so deeply ♥
are often the hardest things to say. ♥
But I just can't keep quiet anymore, ♥
So I'll tell you any ways. ♥
There is a place within my heart ♥
that no one else can fill. ♥
I love you and I always will! ♥ ♥

EVERY TEAR YOU SHED
I SILENTLY WIPE AWAY
I WISH I COULD BE WITH YOU
BUT I WASN`T MEANT TO STAY

IF ONLY I COULD HOLD YOU
AND SHOW YOU I AM STILL HERE
IF ONLY I COULD EASE YOUR PAIN
AND ERASE ALL OF YOUR FEAR

I HATE TO SEE YOU CRYING
I HATE TO SEE YOU SAD
WHERE I AM IS A BETTER PLACE
IT`S REALLY NOT THAT BAD

I AM YOUR STRENGTH WHEN LIFE SEEMS FUTILE
YOU`RE ANGEL IN THE SKY
I DIDN`T WANT TO LEAVE YOU
DIDN`T WANT TO MAKE YOU CRY

I AM WITH YOU EVERY SECOND
EVERY HOUR OF THE DAY
AND WHENEVER YOU NEED DIRECTION
I WILL GUIDE YOU ON YOUR WAY

YOU NEVER ONCE LET ME DOWN
AND YOU ALWAYS SAW ME THROUGH
YOU STILL HAVE SO MUCH LOVE TO GIVE
AND TRULY I LOVE YOU

YOU WILL NEVER BE ALONE
SO SURROND YOURSELF WITH LOVE
AND TAKE COMFORT IN THE FACT
I`M WATCHING FROM ABOVE

../___\ WHY?
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
Why must my heart keep grieving,
Why do I feel so alone?
Why did you take my loved one God,
Why couldn't he stay at home?
Why did he have to feel pain,
Why did he have to die?
Why can't I go to sleep at night,
Why do I have to cry?
⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
'My child,' said God, 'please understand,
I know your grief runs deep,
I've heard your many questions
In your prayers before you sleep;
I promised all eternity,
No death shall shadow you,
Your loved ones dwell with me above,
Up in those skies so blue;
They live with me in Heaven,
This place is their real home,
Their time on earth was through,
They learned to love, I called them home.
Your loved one is an Angel now,
Watching closely over thee,
There is no fear or pain up here,
Their soul is roaming free.
I let your loved one visit you
As you lie down in your bed,
He holds your hand and helps you pray
And gently strokes your head.
So please stop asking why he left
And dry your weary eyes,
For he is safe from harm on earth
With me, in the Heavenly skies.'

I NEED TO SAY GOODBYE
ALTHOUGH YOU'RE WITH ME.
I STAND BESIDE YOUR GRAVE,
YET YOU ARE HERE ,
I MISS YOU TERRIBLY AND
HOPE YOU MISS ME,
BUT WHEN I TURN TO YOU,
YOU ARE ALWAYS NEAR.
I TALK TO YOU AS THOUGH
YOU LIVED WITHIN ME.
NOT CHANGED BUT SIMPLY
MOVED IN FROM OUTSIDE.
I KNOW EACH DAY YOU
MUST A LITTLE LEAVE ME,
BUT HERE.AS ALWAYS YOU
MUST BE MY GUIDE.
YOU WERE AND ARE AND WILL BE,
JUST AS EVER IN MANY MINDS
AND HEARTS,NOT ONLY MINE,
NO PHYSICAL EVENT CAN SUCH
LOVE SEVER;DEATH IS A DIMENSION,
NOT A LINE AND SO GOODBYE DOES
NOT MEAN YOU ARE GONE,SO LONG
AS I STILL LOVE YOU,YOU LIVE ON.

Weep Not For Me


Weep not for me though I am gone
Into the gentle night
Grieve if you will, but not for long
Upon my souls sweet flight.


There is no need for tears.
I am at peace, my soul is at rest
There is no pain, I suffer not,
For with your love I was so blessed.


I am in a place of comfort
The fear now is gone.
Put those things out of your thoughts,
In your memory I live on.



Remember not my fight for breath
Remember not the strife
Please do not dwell upon my death
But celebrate my life

Before It Is Too Late

If you’ve a tender message
Or a loving word to say
Don’t wait ’til you forget it
But whisper it today.

We live but in the present,
The future is unknown
Tomorrow is a mystery,
Today is all our own.

The tender words unspoken
The letters never sent
The long forgotten messages
The wealth of love unspent.

For these some hearts are breaking
For these some loved ones wait
So show them that you care for them
Before it is too late.
