Fill not your hearts with pain and sorrow,
but remember me in every tomorrow.
Remember the joy, the laughter, the smile.
I’ve only gone to rest a little while.
Although my leaving causes pain and grief,
my going has eased the hurt and given relief.
So dry your eyes and remember me, not as now, but as I used to be.
I will always remember you And reflect with a smile.
Understand I’ve gone only to rest for a little while.
As long as I have the love of each of you,
I will live in the hearts of all of you.
