Don't Cry For Me

I have been spending time with people that were in Jay's life and realizing that they are moving on.  It does make me sad and I have cried tears worrying that Jay will be forgotten.   I get afraid myself at times that I will forget his laugh, his hugs, his smile; even how he smells.  Logically I know that I nor anyone else will forget Jay; it's my broken heart that plays games.  I know that life needs to go on for me and  everyone else.  That is how Jay would want it.  A little while later I came across this poem just to remind me that Jay is always with me.  Are you afraid that you too won't remember some things about your child?

DON’T CRY FOR ME

Don't cry for me when I die

For I am the moon that beams

on lakes and mountains high.

                                                                  

Don't cry for me when I die

For I am the sun that shines

... in a blue, blue sky.

Don't cry for me when I die

For I am the leaves that fall

in Autumn time.

Don't cry for me when I die

For I am the stars that shine

on a warm summer night.

Don't cry for me when I die

For I am the wind that blows

with secrets untold.

Don't cry for me when I die

For I am lapping water as you bathe

on sandy beaches,

Don't cry for me when I die

for I will always be by your side.
