Thoughts for a Friend Who Recently Lost Someone Dear

by Andrew Reynolds

We are their memories

We are their lives

When those we love

Have left us for the final time

In out hearts

In our minds

In our lives

There, they are still alive

Still with us

Still loving us

Still teaching us

And as long as we live

As long as we remember

And keep their love

And their spirit

Alive

They are never gone

And never will death truly claim them
