As One

Poem by: Samantha M. Hann

It’s okay to miss you,

It’s okay to cry.

Just know I’ll never forget you.

This isn’t a permanent goodbye.

Sometimes I sit and wonder

If you are standing by my side,

Giving me the courage

To carry on with pride.

I’ll hold onto our memories,

Until this life is done.

In my heart is where I’ll store them,

Where we can be as one.

Ways to keep them close
