Perspective

Sometimes you need to step back
To get a better view
Whoever pushed me in the past
I could not ever blame you

Although you may not see right now
You helped me find a piece
Unknowingly, unconsciously
You helped me to unleash

Parts of me not known before
Not remembered until then
I should not blame, but thank you
For helping me see more

Your message

Wondering, alone

Conjuring images to make me believe

Are you really gone?

Truthfully, who do I deceive?

Home, at last

Pure beauty I see

Almost just walked past

Drawn to the splendour there for me

Dawning, at night

Your message so clear

My darkness you light

You are always near

Today I’ll let the tears flow

Today I’ll let the tears flow

Today I’ll take my time

Today I’ll see the sorrow

Accept that it’s all mine

Today I’ll set it free

I won’t ignore the pain

Do what is right for me

There’s only love to gain

I won’t mourn your death

I won’t mourn your death

You are where you should be

The passing of your last breath

Brought you peace I see

I mourn the loss of you

I mourn ‘cause you’re not here

Tears for the old and new

Gone who was so dear

I mourn what I can no longer see

No longer feel or hear

But your death I do not mourn

You’re at home, beloved and free

Our moment alone

You sat on my bed

Calm and serene

For just one glimpse

Chose to be seen

Reassuring me

You are always near

In every thought

In every tear

In the blink of an eye

Your appearance had gone

But surely I saw you

In our moment alone

Ander gemis

Ik mis jou

Zoals we dat hier doen

Aanwezigheid onmerkbaar

Nooit meer zoals toen

Ik mis jou

Jouw stem en jouw wijsheid

Het praten, het lachen

En hoe je zei: Dag meid

Jij mist mij

Bevrijd van alle last

Aanwezig wanneer gewenst

Wanneer het jou maar past

Jij mist mij

In liefde, van ver of ook dichtbij

Zichtbaar, hoorbaar, voelbaar

Nog altijd daar voor mij

Love not lost

Love not lost

But here to stay

I feel the dawning

Of a brand-new day

A day of hope

A spree of light

I thank Goodness

With all my might

Although my eyes

They cannot see

I feel you near

Right here with me

Love not lost

But here to stay

In utter thankfulness

I pray
