FORGET ME NOT

Forget me not, for I am there
In the beat of your heart
On the wing of your prayer.
Forgive me my parting and leaving you thus,
A joyous reunion is waiting for us!
Continue to strive toward your goal and be brave,
Please know that my love didn't stop at the grave.
My spirit is with you through good times and bad,
I share all the joys and the sorrows you've had.
Feel my presence within your next breath
And realize there's no distance in death.
Ask for my help and I'll answer your call
Reach for my hand when you stumble and fall.
Run the last mile with a smile on your face,
My arms will be waiting when you finish the race.
Always remember, my love is right there
In the beat of your heart,
On the wing of your prayer.
