I Am Always With You

As you hold me close in memory,
even though we are apart,
my spirit will live on
in the haven of your heart.
I am with you always.
When you lean on trusted friends
and their caring hugs enfold you,
within their loving arms
I will also hold you.
I am with you always.
In nature's consolations—
a sunrise veiled in mist,
with butterflies alighting
on each flower to be kissed.
I am with you always.
And beyond that far horizon
when we'll finally be together,
where love will be eternal
and life will last forever.
I am with you always.
