To The Ones Left Behind

 

To all of you who we left behind

Maybe this will ease your mind.

All of us to a man

Know that you feel sad, just

coming home from that land.

 

But don’t dwell on us, for you see,

We all are here just across the sea.

We look down on you and sometimes shed a tear,

Because you live in a fantasy of yesteryear.

 

Sure, we all know that you miss the friendship we had.

Fear not my brother, your name soon here we will add.

Look not at what might have been

Lift up your eyes and live fondly, remembering when.

 

Your brothers await your journey's end

When that day comes we will be here to great a friend.

There is a place already made for you to rest

Because you, my faithful friend, have been the best.
