To Those I love
If I should ever leave you whom I love to go along the Silent Way, grieve not, Nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk of me as if I were beside you there. I'd come-- I'd, come could I but find a way! But would not tears and grief be barriers? and when you hear a song or see a bird I loved, please do not let the thought of me be sad... for I am loving you just as I always have... You were so good to me! There are so many things I wanted still to do-- so many things to say to you... Remember that I did not fear... It was just leaving you that was so hard to face... We cannot see beyond... But this I know I loved you so--'twas heaven here with you
