Until Angels Close My Eyes

I shudder at the thought of losing you And cry at the scene of your grave When I think of you I remember all the happy times we shared. Even though I know you shall not play Down here on earth again The memories still live on In my heart, mind, and soul. I know I won't see you again in this lifetime But I know I will when the angels close my eyes. Even though you lay Beneath the cold, cold ground You still live on in me. Goodbye for now, my dear friend For I will see you again When the angels close my eyes.

Great poem Hannah, when life continues on the flip side, What we love now we get to keep, for life is love in action. Sincerely, Moses
