LET ME CARRY YOU

"WHEN YOU ARE ALONE
AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO,
I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU.

A FRIEND WANTS TO HELP,
IN GOOD TIMES AND BAD,
JOINING HANDS IN TOGETHERNESS,
WHEN HAPPY OR SAD.

FRIENDS ARE A BLESSING,
ALWAYS WILLING TO SHARE.
SO IF YOU NEED ME,
I'LL ALWAYS BE THERE.

COME RAIN OR SHINE,
UNTIL THE SUN PEEKS THROUGH,
AS A FRIEND I ASK, PLEASE,
LET ME CARRY YOU."

~God Bless You Sweet Angel~

"How long will the pain last?"
a broken hearted mourner asked me.
I have to answer truthfully.
We never quite forget.
No matter how many years pass, we remember.
The loss of a loved one is like a major operation.
Part of us is removed, and we have a scar for the rest of our lives.
As years go by, we manage.
There are things to do, people to care for, tasks that call for full attention.
But the pain is still there, not far below the surface.
We see a face that looks familiar, hear a voice that echoes, see a photograph
in someone's album, see a landscape that once we saw together, and it seems
as though a knife were in the wound again. But not so painfully.
And mixed with joy, too. Because remembering a happy time is not all sorrow,
 it brings back happiness with it.
How long will the pain last?
All the rest of your life. But the thing to remember is that not only
the pain will last, but the blessed memories as well.
Tears are proof of love. The more love, the more tears.
If this be true, then how could we ever ask that the pain cease altogether.
For then the memory of love would go with it.
The pain of grief is the price we pay for love."
