The Departed

I am still here
Standing near
Close your eyes
And you can feel
My hand on your shoulder
I am still here
Running fingers through your hair
Singing your favorite lullaby
To soothe your fears
And remind you
We share the same heartbeat
I am still here
Whispering my hopes in your ear
Providing guidance in memories
Showing how proud
To watch your dreams unfold
I am still here
I come when you say my name
Listen as you speak
Treasuring every thought you share
Putting my arms around you
Kissing your forehead
I am still here
Even though you can’t see me
Close your eyes
Feel my hand on your shoulder
We share the same heartbeat
I will always be there for you
