Love Never Dies

He used to wonder if it was true what they say about love
how true love never dies…
until he lost someone he loved
until he saw how it applies.

He loved this person with all his heart
which is the reason why he cried
when he knew she would be gone forever
when he was told that she had died.

And though that day was years ago
he thinks he knows the reason why
today he still hears her laughter
and he still hears her cry.

Why there are still days when he wakes up
happily…to his surprise
he knows that she is near him
even though he can’t see her with his eyes.

And he’s come to realize…
now true love is defined….
not only by who we are when we are here
but by all the memories we leave behind.
