The Way

In the darkness I turned to go; my last day’s done; I’ll miss you so.

No time even to say good bye or to lick the tears spilling from your eyes.

That’s when I heard you call my name; I knew right then, I must turn back to help ease your pain.

Since I’ve no voice with which to speak, its whispers in your dreams I’ll make.

Ease your heart and rest your mind, my time with you was the best of kind.

I couldn’t have asked for a better friend, we’ve shared our journey to the very end.

There’s one final thing you need to know, I’ll whisper in your ear before I go …

“I’m leaving first to find the way … so I can lead you back here with me on your last day.”
