Shine Your Light

Days have past
Weeks gone by
Yet memories stay strong

I remember
Cannot forget
The pain lasts so long

To watch him go
To disappear
Sends arrows through my heart

To lose control
To lose belief
Tears my soul apart

To see his picture
To hear his name
Stirs a tiny spark of hope

To give that smile
Rebuild belief
Helps me now to cope

To share a joke
A loving word
Is sharing who he was-

Spreading joy
Sincerely love
Only just because

A loyal friend
A devoted mate
The best Zeide to me

His eyes would sparkle
His smile so real
That’s how I want to be

I remember his words
Just be your best
In everything you do

So I’ll continue
Spreading light
Zeide, I’ll be just like you
