Debra Ann Dunbar
When I come to the end of the day and the sun has set for me, I want no rites in a gloom-filled room, Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little, but not too long and not with your head bowed low. Remember the love we once shared— miss me but let me go. This is a journey we must take and each must go alone. It’s all part of the Maker’s plan, A step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick at heart go to the friends we know and bury your sorrows in doing good deeds ~~ miss me, but let me go.
