I feel you near

In your last days you held the rosary beads I sent you

I didn’t know until you told me that it helped you in the night

Now I’m wearing your shoes, and I’ve got a rosary the same as I gave you

I feel you are near

But now we aren’t allowed to meet in person

I won’t forget you

How can I forget you when you’ve always been here since I was one and a half years old?

I won’t forget you but something in the air tonight evokes you

If you are a comforting presence to those you left behind

That’s not a bad thing is it?

We can’t touch you or see you but we can send you we can almost feel you

The connection is very touching and tender

While I’m alive stay near me

What a blow it was to hear your diagnosis

And to know I could not take away your suffering

In the the pain was too much for you

And I didn’t want you to go on and suffering

I have never been so close to anyone in the last few years

Now we see through a glass darkly but then we shall see face to face
