I Went To Heaven's Door

I went to heaven’s door and knocked and waited impatiently for reply but the door was blocked; Peter came to open it but with the door set only slightly ajar he asked who I was and why I traveled so far. I reminded him of my name and then told my story, tearing as I explained. My only love came here, a little more than a year ago and hard as I try, my life forward just can’t go. The door opened wide and bright in the distance I saw a blinding light A hand touched my shoulder but still I did not see who it was that was touching me. A majestic voice spoke in my ear and said my lonely life should be neither fear nor tears. She loves you still and watches over you look at the time, it remains for the jobs you need do. I felt a brush of warmth around my shoulder and in the warming light I suddenly felt much bolder as upon my cheek there was a loving kiss and once again, I felt the love I missed it still exists. I turned away reluctantly, knowing I must live again and I must wait to return to heaven in the end. Goodbye, I said for now I’ll live well, better than before Not Goodbye the voice replied, we’re with you evermore.
