Time does not really heal
a broken heart;
it only teaches a person
how to live with it.

Cry all you want,
Laugh when you can

Those we love remain with us,
for love itself lives on,
And cherished memories never fade
because a love one's gone.
Those we love can never be
more than a thought apart,
For as long as there is memory,
they'll live on in the heart.

The Last Trick or Treater
It’s late Halloween night,
The candle in the pumpkin is nearly out.
The candy is almost gone,
The doorbell rings one last time.
It’s a little boy in costume
With a jack-o-lantern for his treats,
Only he has no candy
And he has no one waiting for him in the dark.
As he leaves, he stops,
turns around and waves to me.
Could it be?
