Fill not your heart with pain and sorrow,
But remember me in every tomorrow….
Remember the joy, the laughter, the smiles,
I've only gone to rest a little while.
Although my leaving causes pain and grief,
My going has eased my hurt and given my relief.
So dry your eyes and remember me,
not as I am now, but as I used to be.
Because, I will remember you all,
and look on with a smile.
Understand, in your hearts,
I've only gone to rest a little while.
