    Only one year has passed,

    Though it feels like longer.

    People say things will get better,

    I don't feel any stronger.

    At times I sit and cry

    missing you, oh, so much.

    The way we laughed, your smile,

    deep in my heart you have forever touched.

    Not a day goes by that you don't come to my mind,

    I think about you, I miss you

    I wish you were here with me

    I know you wish you were here too.

    Things aren't the same without you here,

    So many things that you are missing.

    I sit here thinking of you,

    dreaming, I'm reminiscing.(can't spell sorry)

    I hope your happy where ever you are now,

    I smile thinking of the good times we had.

    through good times and bad times,

    when you were happy, when you were mad.

    Forever you will stay within my heart,

    I'll never forget you.

    I cherish you forever,

    you were amazing....you were true.

    I just wrote that I hope you like it...you can use it if you'd like.....

    If Tears Could Build A Stairway

    If tears could build a stairway

    And memories were a lane

    We would walk right up to heaven

    And bring you back again

    No farewell words were spoken

    No time to say goodbye

    You were gone before we knew it

    And only God knows why

    Our hearts still ache in sadness

    And secret tears still flow

    What it meant to lose you

    No one can ever know

    But now we know you want us

    To mourn for you no more

    To remember all the happy times

    Life still has much in store

    Since you'll never be forgotten

    We pledge to you today

    A hallowed place within our hearts

    Is where you'll always stay

    Source(s): This is a very popular poem... I think it is perfect for the occasion

    "I still miss those I loved who are no longer with me but I find I am grateful for having loved them. The gratitude has finally conquered the loss."

    Author: Rita Mae Brown

    or this one , that my granddad had at his passing

    Do not stand at my grave and weep

    I am not there; I do not sleep.

    I am a thousand winds that blow

    I am the diamond glints on snow,

    I am the sun on ripened grain,

    I am the gentle autumn rain.

    When you awaken in the morning's hush

    I am the swift uplifting rush

    Of quiet birds in circling flight.

    I am the soft starlight at night.

    Do not stand at my grave and cry,

    I am not there; I did not die.

    "I Miss You"

    Sha la la la la

    Sha la la la la

    You used to call me your angel

    Said I was sent straight down from heaven

    You'd hold me close in your arms

    I loved the way you felt so strong

    I never wanted you to leave

    I wanted you to stay here holding me

    [CHORUS:]

    I miss you

    I miss your smile

    And I still shed a tear

    Every once in a while

    And even though it's different now

    You're still here somehow

    My heart won't let you go

    And I need you to know

    I miss you, sha la la la la

    I miss you

    You used to call me your dreamer

    And now I'm living out my dream

    Oh how I wish you could see

    Everything that's happening for me

    I'm thinking back on the past

    It's true that time is flying by too fast

    [CHORUS]

    I know you're in a better place, yeah

    But I wish that I could see your face, oh

    I know you're where you need to be

    Even though it's not here with me

    [CHORUS x2]
