Sitting here resting <br /> Thinking of thee, <br /> A smile comes to my face, <br /> That's so pleasant to see. <br /> <br /> Thoughts drifting about, <br /> My mind wonders on. <br /> I'm calm and not restless. <br /> There is nothing wrong. <br /> <br /> The peace from around <br /> Fills in my head <br /> Longing to hold you <br /> Remembering what you said. <br /> <br /> You'd always love me <br /> This I hold dear <br /> In my heart you will stay <br /> Since you are no longer here. <br /> <br /> The last time I squeezed your hand, <br /> And looked deep into your face, <br /> You were cold as ice, <br /> And surrounded by lace. <br /> <br /> But the memories we shared, <br /> Is what I hold tight <br /> No longer is there sorrow, <br /> And I'm doing alright. <br /> <br /> I will always miss you, <br /> And love you so dear, <br /> My life will go on, <br /> With your memory near.<br /><br />Dawn J.
