A lifetime of knowing someone
And one day they are just gone,
Twelve days of rituals to mark the life that was once led,
Yesterday they were here,
Today they are not.
Memories that feel like a lifetime ago,
Make me wonder - was it a dream I saw, or was it real?
No matter how many days friends and family cry or not,
It’s not about the count.
What it is about are the lives touched by the life once led -
And whether you cry or not,
The beautiful and pure memories
Will remain with you in your heart and head.
A tribute to the lives once led - No matter what,
You are the ones who taught us how to tread.
