Twelve years and you are no longer here
A part of me breaks while another rejoices
As you are free from the suffering
The tears come and go
But your absence is constantly felt
You are dearly loved and wholly missed
Your gift of teaching resounds in every bone of my body
Your teachings have been my greatest lessons
Your love and patience, the biggest of boons
A loss of this magnitude, I’ve never experienced
Though You are not with me in form, You remain in my every heartbeat
One day, I will feel Your energy in form again
An exceptional love I will feel
And thus, I will know
That to know You is to know Love
And to know Love
Is to be One with God
Rest in Divine Peace
