In tears we saw you sinking,
We watched you fade away.
You suffered much in silence,
You fought so hard to stay.
You faced your task with courage,
Your spirit did not bend,
But still you kept on fighting, until the very end.
We saw you getting tired
So when we saw you sleeping
So peaceful, free from pain,
We could not wish you back
To suffer that again.
Always remembered, always cherished.
Each memory a part of us, a part of you,
Never to be lost.
