Jewels, fragments engraved in memory
Beautiful moments gathered like pearls on a string 
A comforting necklace to wear on days when grief 
claws your soul from within 

With memories comes the joy of being granted the honor
of having known a radiant soul like yours
Never hurting, never placing blame, only spreading joy 
I swear you were put on this earth to be a changing force 

Gently you guided us towards trust, with your helping hand 
always there when needed, inspiring to rise instead of fall 
Now that the time has come to say goodbye, of course 
we ask ourselfs why. But also we know how not to fall,
how to stand strong through it all.
Thanks to you.
