Miss Me

We've known lots of pleasure, at times endured pain, we've lived in the sunshine and waked in the rain. But now we're separated and for a time apart, but I am not alone you're forever in my heart. Death always seems so sudden, and it is always sure, but what is often forgotten, it is not without a cure. There may be times you miss me, I sort of hope you do, but smile when you think of me, for I'll be waiting for you. Now there are many things for you to do, and lots of ways to grow, so get busy be happy, and live your life, Miss me, but let me go.
