Live, laugh, love ...

When did this happen?
When the sun seemed a little brighter, a little warmer ...

When did this happen?
When the sound of my laughter no longer startled me ...

When did this happen?
When I recognized the person looking back in the mirror ..

When did this happen?
When someone else's pain was greater than mine.

Does it really matter that ...
   I no longer cry every day ...
   I no longer feel like I cannot survive the moment ..
   I no longer mark time with the day he died.

I still miss him dearly but now with hope
   ... for he taught me that with hope I can survive.
I still miss him dearly but now with love
   ... for he taught me that with love I can feel.
I still miss him dearly but now with laughter
   ... for he taught me that with laughter anything is possible.
I still miss him dearly but now with life
   ... for in the world of the living, I am witness to our love.
