LINES OF THOUGHT © 2016

Your silence

May you weep the deep and slow mourning,

I composed this melody, serene and heartfelt,

To comfort your wounded soul.

Today, tomorrow at noon,

You’ll hear it, and in it feel the company,

Of someone who never truly departed,

For if someone told you otherwise, that someone lied.

Always remember their memory,

Like a living flame in your story.

And you will live the days, after noon,

Celebrating love, honor, and joy.

For those we love never leave,

They remain within us, like the sun in its rising.

In their extraordinary story, you will find,

The strength to carry on, to never stop loving.

For Nicola.
