                            It is a deep mystery,

                            This matter of life and death…

                            That the same person

                            Who brought us a thousand joys,

                            Can one day leave us shedding a thousand tears.

                            So suddenly, sometimes That we grope blindly for words left unspoken,

                            And for the hug we needed to give we needed to give.

                            To say goodbye,

                            And wonder,

                           How this thread that holds us all to life.

                           Can be so thin and fragile.

                            Until one day, we find the courage to accept

                            That the living aren’t meant to understand death,

                             Only to celebrate life

                             And to remember that the only real death is forgetting Amen.
