Some poems for you to share xx

There's a pain beyond imagining
that’s burning in your heart
for suddenly your whole world
has been cruelly ripped apart.
All words of consolation
which are bound to come your way
will probably seem empty
and of little use today.
For when you ask the question why
it makes no sense at all
that one so precious had to die.

The only source of comfort
is your memories and the love
and they will shine forever
like the brightest star above.
A flame that burns eternally
so strong it lights the sky
and even through your darkest days
that flame will never die.
So many people share your pain
we grieve with you as one.
The gift of life gets taken back
but the love goes on and on.

Do you make them laugh in heaven
does your smile bring them good cheer?
Do you make the sun shine brighter
like you did when you were here?
The very mention of your name
the memories of your smile
the little things you said and did
are with us all the while.

You meant so very much to us
there’s nothing left to say
except that without you here
there is no perfect day
for no-one knows the heartache
that lies behind our smiles
no-one knows how many times
we have broken down and cried.

We want to tell you something
so there won't be any doubt
you're so wonderful to think of
but so hard to be without
we hold you close within our hearts
and there you shall remain
to walk with us throughout our lives
until we meet again.

Many days have passed now
since I left your world behind
from so far away I watch you
as you hold me dear inside.
I know how much you miss me
because I miss you in return
although you know I’m happy
in your eyes the tears still burn.
I try to give you comfort
from heaven when I pray
the only wish I have
Is that I could take your pain away.
Please know how much I love you
that I am always by your side
you see, I have a purpose here
so open your heart wide.
I want to watch the good things
that will happen in your life
I can’t stand to see you sit there
and repeatedly ask why….
There is nothing that you did wrong
and there is nothing you didn’t say
I know your thoughts and worries
as I walk with you each day.
If you listen really closely
you can hear the words I say to you
you see, I still share my secrets
I tell you everything I do.
I stay strong because I love you
And because I know the day will come
When we’re allowed to be together,
We’ll walk hand in hand into the sun….
