If You are real quiet

I can still hear her talking to
Jack. Saying do not leave, please
take me with you.

Be calm and you will hear her speak, in the stillness, in the calm, her love resounds.

If you are real quiet this promise I make, you will hear the voice of Kathleen helping you along your way.
