If I should ever leave you whom I love
To go along the Silent Way… grieve not.
Nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk
Of me as if I were beside you there.
(I’d come…I’d come, could I but find a way!
But would not tears and grief be barriers?)
And when you hear a song or see a bird
I loved, please do not let the thought of me
be sad… For I am loving you just as
I always have…
You were so good to me!
There are so many things I wanted still
To do…so many things to say to you…
Remember that I did not fear…It was
Just leaving you that was so hard to face.
We cannot see Beyond…But this I know:
I loved you so…‘twas heaven here with you!
