STILL
A new day begins and so ends my sleep,
The light through the curtains I dare not peep.
The warmth of the bed, only on one side,
Tears track my face, from where I have cried.
You're still with me, still in my head
Still as I face another day ahead.
The autumn leaves fall on the ground,
Christmas comes , the family is around
Loving support we comfort each other,
We know how we're feeling, each sister, each brother.
You're still with us with each new season
Still as we wonder the rhyme, the reason.
The old year has gone, new memories to create,
as we face the new year, two thousand and eight.
Our childrens future in their young bright eyes,
Your legacy lives on, it never dies.
You're still with us in all that we do,
still as we face another something new.
I hear your voice in each book I read,
your touch I miss and desperately need
The wind blows and caresses my hair,
Raindrops kiss my lips assure me you're there.
You're still with me when I feel the sun,
Still together, together as one.
I know you would want us to live every day
positive and hopeful in each and every way.
Our memories are safe, not ravaged not broken,
You're with us in every act and word thats spoken.
You're still with us all, never to part
You're still with us all, forever in our hearts.
No pain no more now sleep my love
until the day we join you up above,
Until that day we're all together
you're still with us, forever and ever.
