I saw the sun today
High in the cold sky
I can smile now
When I remember you
Like how you were
With strength in your arms

Maybe it's the day
It's bright gold rays
Maybe I've turned a corner
To breath in step again
I can remember your smile
Eyes lit up with joy
Laugh that was infectious
I hear your voice from pain free times
When I paid little attention
But I remember it now
Your memory didn't choke me
Or freeze me into a stare
Instead I smiled in warmth of joy
That I remembered you

I still feel your loss
Though I now know
Memories that are cherished
will stay with me
To remind me 
You’re not gone.
