Leaving You
i must leave you for a short while please do
not grieve and shed wild tears and
hug your sorrows to you through the years
but start out bravely with a gallant
smile and for my sake and in my name
live on and do all things the same feed not
your loneliness on empty days but
fill each waking hour in useful ways reach out
your hand in comfort and in
cheer and i in return will comfort you and hold you
dear and never, never be
afraid to die for i am waiting for you in the sky!
