His smile and laughter lit up the world.

Do not weep for me for I am not here,
Yet my soul will never leave you, so do not fear.
I know of your pain from the tears streaming down your face,
But know that I am fine, just in another place.

Walk upright and put one foot in front of the other,
For this day will pass, and yet so will another.
I know your heart is empty, yet forever full of sorrow,
But just remember my smile and look forward to tomorrow.

Grieve if you must, for I do understand,
I will catch your tears one by one and hold them in my hand.
But when at my grave know this when you cry,
I have been given life eternal… I did not die.

So remember me always and know of my love,
I am always watching over you, just from above.
Live life as I would and listen for me… you'll hear,
But do not weep for me for I am not here.
