Loss of a Loved One

You can shed tears that he is gone

or you can smile that he has lived

You can close your eyes

and pray that he comes back

or you can open your eyes

and see all that he’s left

Your heart can be empty

because you can’t see him

or it can be full of the love you shared

You can turn your back on tomorrow

and live in yesterday

or you can be happy for tomorrow

because of yesterday

You can remember him and only that’s he gone

or you can cherish his memory

and let it live on

You can cry and close your mind

be empty and turn your back

or you can do what he’d want

Smile, open your eyes

love and move on
