Remembering Someone We Lost - Happy Birthday Aaron

Happy Birthday Aaron - although you are gone your not forgotten.

Today I have posted a video recorded last year of our thoughts on remembrance.

I wrote this poem in the memory of the people that I have lost in recent years.

I wrote this from their point of view.

As I saw the tear disappear down your face

I realized at once

I was going, going

Gone

As I felt the warmth leave my body

Like a leak in my soul,

Slipping away, away from my grasp

I was going, going

Gone

Feeling your breathe

Feeling your hold

Is fading, fading

Please don't leave me

Gone

Distant voices I can’t hear you

Why can’t you hear me

Don’t go, don’t go

Gone

Floating away

Feel no pain

Peace at last

I now say good bye

I love you and I will miss you

Going Going

Gone

I realise that I live in your

heart and your memories

and it then I realise that although I've gone.

I still live on

In you.

Gone
