IF I DIE

                        ~ by Lisa Westlake

 

 

 

 

Do not stand by my grave and cry

If I die

For I am not there

I am the sunlight on your cheek

The soft breeze in your hair

I am the wind in the sail

I’m the tune in your ear

You’ll feel me, you’ll sense me

And when it’s quiet you’ll hear.

You will miss me, and I you

I know it’s not right

But if you look through the darkness

What you’ll find is the light

A life blessed with love

One could not ask for more

Love, support and affection

From all those I adore

Dear family and friends

It was too short, we all know

But your smiles and your laughter

I take with me as I go

Know in your hearts

That it’s OK to cry

Know too that your love

Makes it a little easier to say bye

Do not stand by my grave and cry

If I die

For I am not there

I am floating, I’m free

..........  and I haven’t a care
