A time to sleep

by June   Oct 5, 2006


Don't think of it as dying,
think of it as sleeping.
No more suffering and pain,
only peace he/she will gain.

Missing him/her you will do,
memories will see you through.
Forget him/her you will not,
hold onto the thoughts you've got.

Kind words from others won't heal,
because the loss you feel is real.
Think of him/her as being at rest,
that's comfort at it's best.

You wouldn't want him/her in pain,
never being fit and well again.
He/she lives on in your heart and mind,
dying is just sleep of a different kind.

Hold onto the memories forever,
they'll see you through the stormiest weather.
Mourn and let you tears fall,
for the one you love is at rest thats's all.
