Before you left you said with a smile...

Before you left
you said with a smile,
something that would carry on,
in heart and in soul,
for the rest of my life.

Your words were so
powerful,
they were said like this,
“People come and go,
I guess that’s life,
But no matter how hard times get,
Put your head up and take the punches
because someone’s always
looking down on you”.


Words of wisdom,
Not so much,
Special words that you said,
in a time of need and sorrow,
that you meant with all your heart,
that before you left,
you said with a smile.
