We Who Really Know You

Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul, there is no separation." Jail ad Din Rumi...(1207-1273)

WE WHO REALLY KNOW YOU

For those who did not know you, my dear

You are not gone, you were never here

For those acquaintances who may have passed your way

They may join the prayer list for just a day

For those who loved you with their eyes

Who saw the hero in disguise

They will always have their stories to tell

Things about you they knew so well

Then there are the ones who quite like me

Look beyond the person you tried to be

We know your heart, can count the beats

We felt your triumph and shared you defeats

We understand your cunning mind

Where serious moments and you humor combined

We sensed your strength when others saw fear

We'll know the loneliness now you're not here

Yes, those who knew you with their eyes

Have missed the character you held inside

They will say goodbye now that you're gone

But there are some of us who will say so long

No physical separation that your passing has forced

Can cut the ties our hearts gave forged

We who knew you with our hearts and souls

Will feel you with every wind that blows
