I remember your smile
I remember your grace
I can still see that kindness
Written all over your face

I remember your laughter
I remember your smell
I can still feel you with me
Having another story to tell

I can still hear your voice
Reminding me right from wrong
Regulating my actions
So kind, but trying to deem strong

I know you’re in heaven
Looking down upon me every day
I hope I’ve made you proud of me
During our time apart; this short stay
