He looks in the mirror
And brushes his hair
He sees her reflection
Standing just over there
He speaks words of love
To the cold empty air
He feels her embrace
Even though she’s not there
He still hold her hand
Caresses her skin
With her by his side
His life can begin
He wonders if others
Can still see her there
Life ended too quickly
It just wasn’t fair
Her spirit still lingers
Laughter brightens the halls
Her memory is more
Than just frames on the walls
She is still be his side
Watching over with care
Even though in his sorrow
He knows she’s not there.
