left this world years ago now, still seems like yesterday though.
The pain subsides alongside the love and the regrets, but past is past, and the futur ahead.
I know that if I could hear you, this is probably what you would tell me:
"Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die."
Words are hard to find to express my true feelings, but when I think about you, i think about about what you asked me before the end, and I just want you to know that now I am ready to keep my promise.
I wasn't ready to say goodbye, and though that I lost you, but now I know how wrong I was. You are still here, in every single one of the lives that you touched(I still make most of my decisions based on what I believe you would approve of, and I probably always will).
I will make you proud, we all will, simply because you were you..
So, I will not stand at your grave and weep,I will stand tall and proud and face life and its obstacles, just as you taught me to.
Because i know you'll always be in my heart and by my side every step of the way.
