Awaken

The night I passed into the light Just above I saw a glow so very bright Side by side two men stood before me Unspoken words, yet my mind could see I feel the love emanating from their eyes One turns to the other with a knowing grin I feel they are able to see my buried sin Yet still I could feel this consuming love I hear songs of sweet rejoicing from above Oh my there are some faces I have missed so My joy is overwhelming in the heavenly glow Inner peace enveloping me as I join the crowd Not one standing seems arrogant or proud Just simple sweet glow of love and grace Reluctantly I am leaving this glorious place Pain beyond any I have ever known My eyes slowly focus as I utter a pain filled groan Doctors working frantically to save me Knowing it’s not yet time for this life to set me free
