Private Arrangements

Private Family Memorial at a Later Date We thought of you with love today But that is nothing new, We thought about you yesterday And days before that too. We think of you in silence We often speak your name, Now all we have are memories And your picture in a frame. Some may think you are forgotten Though on earth you are no more, But in our memory you are with us As you always were before. A million times we've thought of you A million times we've cried, If loving could have saved you You would have never died. You left us beautiful memories Your love is still our guide, And though we cannot see you You are always at our side. It broke our hearts to lose you But you did not go alone, Part of us went with you On the day God called you home. Forgive me Lord, I'll always weep For the best friend I loved, but could not keep.
