Gone

Silent shadows fall on memories

Echoes of a life that used to be

Where you are now, I wonder still

If your heart healed, if you found your will

Ten years have passed since you slipped away

Left us with words we still replay

Did you find peace beyond the pain?

Or does your silent sorrow still remain?

I hope you're smiling, free from despair

Feeling love’s warmth beyond repair

Though you're gone, you're not alone

Your spirit's in the wind, your heart has grown

Would you have gotten over the night?

Found the dawn where darkness was tight

If only time could tell, if you’re well

In the silence, I still wish you could tell

Every memory whispers your name

A tender ache, a gentle flame

Did you see the beauty in each day?

Or was it shadows you couldn’t sway?

I hope your soul’s in a better place

Resting softly in peaceful grace

Though you're gone, you still inspire

A hope that lifts us higher

Would you have gotten over the night?

Found the dawn where darkness was tight

If only time could tell, if you’re well

In the silence, I still wish you could tell

Maybe someday, we’ll meet again

Beyond the tears, beyond the pain

Until then, your light remains in me

A gentle reminder that you’re free

So here’s to you, my silent friend

May your journey never end

In our hearts you’ll always stay

A star that guides our way
