Hush now child why are you crying?
Is it maybe because your husband is dying?
Could the cause of your broken heart possibly be
A sad lonely future? Is that what you see?
Think of his pain and where does it lie?
All fear and suffering end when we die.
The anguish you feel when your loved one has passed
Sadly, in some form, always will last.
Lamenting so many unfinished dreams…
Creates gnawing regrets, too many it seems –
I’ve learned from my losses some wisdom I’ll share…
He has not truly left – he always is there!
His favorite dinner…you’ll make that tonight.
You laugh when you think of your last, stupid fight.
Aftershave on his pillow – the aroma lasts so long.
The radio playing his favorite song.
You see his smile on your child’s face
The way he folds towels – there’s always a trace!
The love that you feel so deep in your heart
Will forever remain even when you're apart.
You cannot erase a love that is true…
Know, through your soul, he is always with you!
