To the living I am Gone

To the Sorrowful I will never return

but to the happy, I am at peace.

And to the faithful I have never left.

I cannot be seen but I can be heard 

So as you stand in a forest,

gazing at the stars,

Remember me. 

Remember me in your heart and in your thoughts.

The memories of the time we shared.

For if you always think of me, I will

never have gone.
