~~~~~~~

When I am gone,

don’t call me back,

My life on earth

will be no more.

Peace I leave you,

for my last act,

I’m now beyond

this earthly door.

I’ll miss your laughter,

tears will fall,

but look within

your aching heart,

loving memories

there—recall.

Hearts stay together,

bodies must part.

I thank you for the

love we’ve known.

Please know that always

I’ll be near

And though I take

this step alone,

My soul’s whispers

I know you’ll hear.

Live your life

with courage and love,

Continue the fight

you’ve begun.

Proudly, I’ll watch

you from above,

Knowing through Death—

Life I have Won.
