This Is Not Good-bye

As you close your eyes

And your last breath is gone

In the many lives you’ve touched

Your love light lives on

Yes, there will be a void

Where you used to be

But I know it’s you

In the sunrise I now see

Your spirit ever brighter

Your touch all the more you

You’re in the depths of my heart

Even the sunset shines of you too

In time I will adjust

To knowing life this way

I know God has called you home

As I cherish all your yesterdays

I’ll always remember

The love light in your eye

We’ll see each other again

This is not good-bye
