What are the gifts of parting?
Of parting, of parting
What are the gifts of parting
From someone you love
Three are the gifts of
parting
Of leaving, of going
Three are the gifts of
parting
From someone you love
One is the memory of loving
Of sharing, of struggling
One is the memory of laughing
With someone you love
Two is the gift of the
present
The lingering, deepening
present
Two is the gift of this
moment
Still with the one that you
love
Three is the gift of the
knowing
Awakening to and remembering
Three is the gift of embracing
The loss of all
that you love
Sweet are the gifts of the
parting
With loving, with memory
Sweet is the gift of well
wishing
The best for someone you
love.
