A poem for all of those who have lost a loved one.

I’ll Be Watching Over You

I have moved on to a better place
I have gone because it was my time
Do not fear for me
For I am safely in God’s sight

I have gone to Heaven
For my journey on earth is done
Though I have crossed over
My memory will live on

I will live on in the ones that I love
Through their memories of me
Hold on to the memories, dear one’s
Let them bring you comfort and peace

Please, hold on to this truth
I’ll be watching over you
my love will remain with you
for your whole life through

My love surrounds you always

For I haven’t gone away

I am with you dear one’s

Each and every day

Whenever you need to talk to me
I’ll be listening to your words
You may not be able to see me
But I will be there, rest assured

Some day when you cross over
I’ll be waiting with a smile on my face
We will be together once again
And we will embrace
