In Memoriam

Each passing day,
Let me look up and think of you.
And every way,
Let me show that I remember you.
With every star,
Let me think how bright a light you were.
With every smile,
Let me think how much you would have laughed.

Each celebration,
Let me think how proud you would have been.
Each setting sun,
Let me think you’ll watch me as I sleep.
When I miss you,
Let me be glad of the memories.
And when I’m lonely,
Let me still share in your company.

Let me be strong,
To support those who need my strength.
Let me be glad,
Now that you’ve passed your final test.
Let me be brave,
Pick up the load and carry on.
Let me behave
As I would wish you, were I gone.
