TO
THOSE I LOVE
AND
THOSE WHO LOVE ME
~Therese Marie
Horn~
When I am gone,
release me, let me go,
I have so
many things to see and do,
Please don't
tie yourself to me with tears,
Be thankful
for our beautiful years.
I gave you
my love. You can only guess
How much you
gave to me in happiness...
I thank you
for the love you each have shown,
But now it's
time I traveled on alone.
So grieve a
while for me, if grieve you must,
Then let your
grief be comforted by trust.
It's only for
a time that we must part,
So bless the
memories within your heart.
I won't be
far away, for life goes on.
So, If you
need me, call and I will come.
Though you
can't see or touch me, I'll be near.
And if you
listen with your heart, you'll hear
All my love
around you soft and clear,
Then, when
you must come this way alone,
I'll greet
you with a smile, and say
"Welcome Home!"
