We watched you suffer,

We watched you sigh,

But all we could do was just stand by.

When the time came, we suffered too,

For you never deserved what you went through.

God took your hand, and we had to part,

He eased your pain, but broke our hearts.

If you could have spoken before you died,

These are the words you’d have replied.

“This life for me is truly past,

I have loved you all to the very last.

Weep not for me but courage take,

And love one another for my sake.

Don’t cry I’m only sleeping,

We’ll meet again someday.”
