I’ll go first, to show you that it’s okay to let go.
I'll go first, so you won't be afraid what is beyond our life.
I’ll go first, to make sure things are all right on the other
side. Then someday, a long time from now, I’ll guide your way.
I’ll go first, and when you feel that gentle breeze upon your
face, it is me caressing you and a reminder that I have never forgotten
all the I love you's, you have told me throughout my life.
I’ll go first, my soul was surrounded in the butterflies that you
marveled at when you wished that I was there as you sat in isolation missing me.
I’ll go first, soaring on the wings of the bird that came up to
you out of nowhere while you wondered if I was there watching over you.
I’ll go first, and when you contemplate the meaning of life while
you gaze out into the sea you’ll see the beauty of what life can be and know
that I was there to comfort you so you can find peace.
I’ll go first, and be the thoughts in your mind while you’re
walking on that mountain trail to comfort you as you cry for me.
I’ll go first, to remind you how fragile life is and interject
your thoughts of how you should live your life to its fullest because that is
what I wanted.
I’ll go first, so that you may learn what grief is like and once
you have healed you can share your experience with those who need to understand
how my loss affected you.
I’ll go first, but I will not be gone. I will see you again,
someday.
