To My Loved Ones
Light as a feather
Free as a bird,
Untethered.
My soul takes flight
Bound for I know not where,
Yet I know that I must go.
Like those who have passed before me,
Now it is my time.
It is with mixed emotions that I leave
This world, my family and my friends.
Then wings of faith embrace me
And I feel my spirit soar.
The angels envelope me
In a welcoming embrace,
My dear old friends surround me.
I have reached my destination.
And so, my loved ones,
Smile through your tears
In fond remembrance of lives shared.
And when it is your time to pass
And you must begin your journey alone,
My hand will be the one
Reaching out to guide you on your journey home.
