From the depths of sadness
Memory brings forth
Moments of tenderness
In dreams
Realization
In the moment
That it is a dream
Thus comfort becomes
The knowledge that past tenderness
Resides in the heart
And wanders around the inner mind’s realm
Memories of comfort
Near the depths of the soul
Touching

With goodness in our hearts
and sadness in our eyes
we said goodbye
We had felt the depths
and seen too much
when we said goodbye
Strength can hold the heart aloft
though tears in trials flow
as we said goodbye
Time is healer of the heart
Mind’s eye throws us back
to when we said goodbye
Many hearts through fits and starts
Have seen some better things
as we said goodbye
Time does not erase our feelings
and silent tears return sometimes
to when we said goodbye
Holding goodness in our hearts
as we gaze beyond
when we said goodbye
