Dear Beverly

You are in my heart and on my mind this morning.

            Mi Amor, you remembered me.

Always.

Some would say that it is pointless.
Some would question why.

Pointless, no; symbolic, yes.
I made a promise to myself and nothing more.

As long as my heart beats you will not be forgotten.

Tunes, not songs.
Tunes, not music.
Just tunes, that is what you called them.

Each morning your day would begin with
words of encouragement.

Each day would begin with a tune
that you could link to.
A tune that you could listen to.
A tune to enjoy.
A bright spot to begin each day.

It was a simple reminder that
you were not alone.
 
But that was all taken away.

When the sister of Connor's mother dare
raise questions in a public forum, your Facebook
page was forcibly deleted.

You were systematically isolated.
But you could have all of the alcohol you wanted.
The pills just kept coming.

One day you simply took control.

No one took the time to call.
No one took the time to care.
No one thought that someone cared.

Grief ... and tears ... and a promise.

As long as my heart beats you will not be forgotten.

Have a tune for you today ... enjoy.

I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

Remember the good times that we had?
I let them slip away from us when things got bad
How clearly I first saw you smilin' in the sun
Wanna feel your warmth upon me, I wanna be the one

I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

I'm so tired but I can't sleep
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard

But I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to loose
Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night
You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light

And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories

And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Weep not for the memories
