Looking back
Your eyes begin to mist over
As you remember
You start to cry
All the good times you had
A walk, laughing, talking
A night with pain
Holding each other,
To keep it out.
How can all these things be over,
You cry.
He's too young
It wasn't his time.
Why did it have to happen to us?
Each has his own end
Though it causes pain
It should also cause joy
For he's not gone
His memory lives on
Every time you think of things he did
Every time you think of the love you shared
He is there with you
He is living there.
Don't forget him,
But don't grieve forever
For he has gone to another place
And let the love he has shown you
Remind you to show this same love to others
So that they won't forget you.
