The hardest part of growing older
Is the holes nothing can fill
The ones we love that slipped away
We miss and always will
But take time to remember
The joy they shared with you
See, nothing lasts forever
So, here's what you can do
Celebrate the memories
And hold them in your mind
Much greater than their absence
Is the love they left behind
The lessons and the laughter
You shared along the way
The bitter sting of losing them
A worthy price to pay
So, smile the smile they shared with you
Remember to be kind
And share with everyone you can
The love they left behind
