WILL YOU WEEP?: LOVE AFTER LOSS

Will you weep
When you think of me,
When you remember the moments we shared?
Will you weep
When you see a photo,
Or recall something I once said?
Will you weep
When I no longer breathe the air of men—
When dust returns to dust, and ashes to ashes?

Don’t mourn, my darling.
Life is fickle,
And eternity—beyond what our minds can grasp.
To live is Christ,
To die is gain.
Know this: we will surely meet again.

So, my darling, when the tears come,
When your heart tightens with emotion,
When you think of all the time we had—
Together or apart—
Know this: I’m closer than you think.
I’m in your heart.
Death is not a chasm.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.

Don’t weep, my darling.
Don’t weep.
Walk the earth with lifted eyes,
Let sunlight kiss your face.
Let laughter find your lips again,
And joy reclaim its place.

My love was never meant to bind—
Live, and love, and carry on,
And sometimes, think of me.
So dry your eyes, my darling
And let your spirit soar.

Though I am gone from flesh and bone,
My love remains, and more.
One day, beyond the veil of time,
Where sorrow has no keep,
You’ll find me waiting, arms outstretched—
So please, my love… don’t weep.

weep, grief
