You must feel no guilt in laughter,
for she knew how much you cared
nor feel sorrow in a smile
that she's not here to share
you cannot grieve forever
and she wouldn't want you to
she would hope you would carry on
the way you always do
you should let memories surround you
and a word someone may say
will suddenly recapture
a time, an hour or a day
for if you keep those moments
you will never be apart
and name will live forever,
locked safe within your hearts.
