A Light Shines In The Darkness

This is dedicated to Cherrie, my former colleague who lost her husband recently from the Philippine Refugee Camp, Morong Bataan, Philippines.

For You Cherrie



When despair fills your weary soul
And there's just no way to cope;
When you think his life is over
And you see no rays of hope...

A light shines in the darkness
That will brighten your ways...
It wil bring you up again with some rays
A brand new and happy day.

Remember, you never walk alone;
Friends are around to ease your pains
And feel the joy like you've never known.
Cherrie, console your soul, don't come to an end,
For sure, the sun will shine again.

You're Not Alone - Cherrie

Just Remember



After many a day when tears have fallen
upon knowledge of his departed soul
there is still a yearning from deep within
for something in life to make you whole.

When weeks have gradually come to pass
so burdened by your restless mourning
an expectation seems to remain
for the aura of his presence returning.

Upon completion of his mission on earth
spent sensibly in profound reminiscing
relief can often seem out of reach
and be nothing more than fruitless wishing.

Before oncoming years in your future
holding on to mementos and memories
you know that his spirit still has breath
as you watch him compassionately.

Only hope in the greatest sense can be
as you carry out your days not alone
fully aware of your destiny
to reunite with him in Heaven’s home.
