My dearest sweet Jessy who understands from above

It's been two years, and still so strong is our love

I've been through positive times, determined to grow

But it's slower than I thought, much much more slow

When first we were parted, people told me, "you need to move on"

I felt sick and couldn't function, it felt all twisted and wrong

And then one day I realised it is you who has moved ahead!

You have returned to our Maker, and with you I will be lead

Your soul was sent down here, by G-d's decree

Gently hand in hand, the angel escorted you to me

You had a mission to fulfill here, only G-d knows

But every way I look at it I see how it shows

You suffered disabilities and sickness and pain

And yet in all your life you didn't complain

You bravely fought through challenges so very great

Yet despite these times, your faith was innate

You brought so much joy and laughter and fun

To everyone, without judgement, leaving out none

You loved life itself, and celebration and song

Your lesson for us was so clear and so strong

To face our obstacles and fears with our love for G-d

And to love deeply and purely and solid as a rod

To appreciate each day, each hour we are granted,

To use that time to make good things to be planted.

And Jessy, my love, when your work was done,

An angel fetched you to take you home, to the Holy One

It aches to be without you in this physical world

But it is decreed that I must continue until my mission is fulfilled

So until we re-unite, my precious angel above

We know that our souls are still bounded in love

When Hashem has decided my work is done on this land,

Who knows? He may send you to take my hand!
