Gone

This is an awful certain word No room to make a comeback It’s so definite nothing to be seen It leaves a mist off the beaten track When a lover leaves their mate A void is so painfully felt That word gone so hard to bear You think your heart will melt You have a much loved possession But it’s gone not to be found It’s so many memories for you Gone it is despite looking all around But one day also this world Will be gone to be no more Nothing left of its effect Just a vapor nothing left in store Then God will create a new world Where righteousness and glory dwell Filled with God’s redeemed ones Whose salvation they will foretell (Gone is a word so definite, nothing can be added or taken away but it leaves such a powerful effect on us all. just my thoughts as I pondered upon it.)
