I'm sorry that I had to leave you,
A distant voice called me away.
There was so much left for us to share,
So much we never got to say.
But all my pain is far behind me,
Confusion finally laid to rest.
I hope my life here had a reason.
What you do now will be the test.
I died too early, but I always knew I would.
I lived life the way I wanted,
and always looked for something good in everyone.
As I look down upon you now,
my hopes for you are still so strong.
Better to have loved and lost,
but we haven't lost for long.
Don't cry for me, beloved friends.
I've risen beyond this world of fear.
Hold my friendship in your memory,
and always know that I am near.
