My love would not want me to:
Be sad forever
He could lighten my mood
With one well-placed sarcastic comment
Cry forever
Although I seem to have
No control over the tears
Stop smiling
He loved my smile and
Did silly things just to make me laugh
Be a hermit
He loved life too much
Always planning our next adventure
Stop loving
His love for family and friends
Was part of his being
He would want me to:
Keep moving forward
He tried so hard to go on
Despite his pain
Have faith
In G-d’s plan
For my life
So I will strive to:
Smile, Laugh, Love
Get out of my head
Get back into life
Take one day at a time
And wait for G-d’s plan
I will honor your wishes
My love
