Do quiet moments, spent in reflection of a beloved, bring you closer to the God of your choice?

Title:
Calvary Dreams
 
(A lone voice whispers)

I heard your sweet voice
Today 

On our anniversary, 
Your birthday 

That old well-loved familiar sound

Whenever I press
 play 

To see and hear you
On that old wedding tape 
We once made

You still look so beautiful and sound so soft and sweet
I couldn't sleep 

But stand up straight, 
Weep

Rewind and repeat 

Oh, why does God give you such grief

Whenever
I see you or hear your voice 

To then stand still 
In total disbelief 

And realise you're now living in new lands of immortality 

And then I always remember
Calvary 

A dark place
Enshrined in human history 

Hanging
Painted up

In so many famous
Art galleries 

So much wrong
Done to one 
So strong 

One crucified
For us and mankind 
To sing a new song 

A new song
So all could belong
 
To the light 
Whenever their time came 

And they could no longer fight 

Cancer like you 
Time or some other kind of pain

So now
Whenever hear your sweet voice 

Or your name whispered
Like on your birthday 
Today 

That familiar lovely sound 
When I finally find the courage 

To press play 

To sit and reminisce about my true love 
On that special day

Our wedding

And her incredible captivating spirituality 

I just know you're safe
Smiling down
Looking my way 

My beloved
Still loved wife called Mary

Because Jesus died
For you and me 

Even though
Crucified 
By Evil 

But never alone 
At Calvary 

So we could all rise 

With the call of the
Golden Trombone 

To atone
To then enter 

Our true home
Under God's 
Super Dome 

I still miss you so much, but deep down I always know

God only calls the best ones home early and that's why in April 

It will always feel like snow
