Whispers of Eternity
You call for me,
But are met by silence.
You reach out to me,
But can’t find my guidance.
You search for my face
And wait for a while,
But you find empty space
Where I once used to smile.
All the laughs we would share
Will echo no more,
All the hugs yet to share
Ripped from our core.
I know you will cry
And be hurt so deeply
When you say your goodbye
To me silently.
As I take my leave
From friends and family
Take all your time to grieve
Fully and gently;
But I have not died
If you remember me,
I have not died
If you still think of me.
When you laugh at a joke
Or words that we spoke,
When you remember that time
Both mundane and sublime
That we spent together
In the glistening hour.
Even if you forget
And move on with life,
Please have no regret
For I am in no strife;
As your lives continue
Mine begins anew,
I’m alive in the dew
And in all I once knew.
