Waste not your love for those passed on
Truth they know in the great beyond
No more pain or illness felt
Like icicles all worries melt
Around you memories are not gone
Moments linger to think upon
Their wish for you do not despond
To let them go is not unfelt
You loved them well
And now the sun brings light to dawn
New journeys in your life hereon
A new hand from the deck is dealt
Still memories of their love felt
Find stepping-stones a guide thereon
You loved them well
