For KK
The world doesn't stop turning
Just because you're not in it.
The sun still rises,
The birds still sing.
If broken hearts could stop the world from turning,
this would be the one.
Love for you did not die with you,
You are in every heartbeat and every breath.
You are the blood in our veins and the air that we breathe.
You are the stars in the night sky,
The wind on our face and in our hair.
You live because we live.
Today, tomorrow and always,
We will be loving you.
Written by Angela Prentice (Auntie)
