Do not cry little one,
I have not gone too far
I am forever around you,
Imagine me an island, like Zanzibar.

I am your rock, your foundation
I'll prop you up when you're down
Close your eyes, little one,
please smile, wipe off that frown.

My angel, my love, it hurts me,
Please do not grieve so
I am only over that hill
Can you see me, little one, that glow.

Although you cannot touch me,
In spirit I am here
In that rainbow, that falling star,
My angel, I am near.

My precious, when you can't go on,
The tears are streaming, you're screaming
I will be drying your tears,
Cupping your face, have you believing.

When your soul is heavy,
Your heart is breaking, do not cry
Little one, it is just for a moment
It isn't forever, it's not really good-bye.

Tara, this is very touching and sad. I could cry. I know it is meant to be comforting, but  sob...

I don't know what to say here... lovely, touching, very very sad... all I can think is everything everyone else has said.

"And one day...the whole stinking world would be theirs..."
-- Velvet Goldmine (Todd Haynes, Oscar Wilde and, unofficially, David Bowie)

Tara...very sweet and gentle. Nicely done.

Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility.
