For Those Who I Love….For Those Who Love Me
When I am gone, release me.
Let me go to find out all that I can be.
You mustn’t tie yourself to me with tears,
Be happy that we had our precious years.
I gave you love. You can only guess,
How much you gave me in happiness.
I thank you for the love you each have shown me,
But now it is time that I traveled on my own.
So grieve a while for me, as grieve you must,
Then let your grief be comforted by trust.
It’s only for a while that we must be apart,
So blessed are the memories,
That lie within your heart.
If you need me, call and I’ll be there,
Though you can’t see or touch me, I’ll be near.
And if you listen with your heart, you’ll hear,
All my love around you, soft and clear.
And then you must come
This way on your own….
I’ll greet you with a smile at this place I now call home.
