You can shed tears that he is gone,or you can smile because he has lived. You can close your eyes and pray that he’ll come back,or you can open your eyes.And see all he's left. Your heart can be empty because you can't see him, or you can be full of the love you shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, are you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. Can we remember him only that he is gone are you can cherish his memory and let it live on. You can cry and close your mind, the empty and turn your back. Are you can do what he wanted; smile Open Your Eyes Love and go on.
