The pain and loss you feel inside
will simmer to a dull ache
You'll always miss those you've lost
But things will look up soon
You know they're watching
Always keeping you safe
Don't let them down
Stay alive and awake
They're where they're supposed to be
So don't give up just yet
You'll meet up soon
In the paradise of your dreams
Everything happens for a reason
And your not given more than you can take
Just have some faith and hope and love
And never forget
Those who moved on
And are waiting patiently at heaven's gate
For you at your dying day.
Author notes
I send out a prayer for those left behind.
I have felt this pain and I know the anguish. It is not easy but things will work out for the best. For those left behind I am sorry. Just hang in there a little longer.

Hanging in there is easier said than done. I know this pain only too well. I lost one very near and dear to me a few days after Christmas last year and well, the pain is still sooooo fresh and real. After his passing I learned a lot more, that has made it worse in some ways, but easier in others. Don't know if I will get over it, but I will deal, as each new day is just that a new day. I will forever carry the love, the memories, and the dreams in my heart.
Best of luck in the contest. -
