My Journeys Just Begun 
Dont think of me as gone away 
My journeys just begun t 
Life holds so many facets ^ 
This earth is but one 
Just think of me as resting 
From the sorrows and the tears 
In a place of warmth and comfort 
Where there are no days and years 
Think of how I must be wishing 
That you could know today 
How nothing but your sadness 
Can really go away 
And think of me as living 
In the hearts of those I touched 
For nothing loved is ever lost 
And I know I was loved so much.
