When the time comes for me to leave the earthly realms.
I hope my passing doesn’t leave those I love too deeply over-whelmed.
As I’ve reminded them often I will never be far away.
Living in their hearts, is where I plan to stay.
Giving them strength to deal with this thing called life.
Reminding them they are loved when dealing with their strife.
I hope I get the chance to say goodbye to their face.
To tell them how much I love them and say it in good grace.
Even when they look at me with tears in their eyes.
I hope to hold my head up and tell them that I tried.
Even though we won’t get there in this lifetime of mine.
The seeds have been planted and deeply intertwined,
I pray they come to blossom and bloom in their hearts,
And I can rest in peace, knowing I gave them the best start.
