I am saddened by your loss--
I know there is a void
That no one else can fill.
I know that are you lost,
And filled with grief that is beyond
What you can possibly tell.
I just wanted to tell you
That I am here. I care--
That there is a place
Beyond your sorrow
And sunshine awaits you there.
Someday sweet memories
Will make you smile again.
And though the pain will linger,
You will hug that moment to your heart
And learn to breathe again.

So live, that when thy summons comes to join
The innumerable caravan which moves
To that mysterious realm, where each shall take
75
His chamber in the silent halls of death,
Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night,
Scourged to his dungeon, but, sustained and soothed
By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave
Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
80
About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.--William Cullen Bryant from Thanatopsis
