People talk out loud about this mysterious place
Love given freely to such a hurtful race
Such gentle feelings to a power unknown
Some times what has been offered, has little shown.

Some live in fear to what could happen to them
To have such a higher love, why the problem?
Holding such guilt in living carefree
With me every moment, is where I want this love to be.

Never worry about what is ever said or done
The day I had my first child I knew it would be a Son
Each day is a play already written but never read
Knowing my life’s plan without a word even said

The journey for everyone is a complicated task
To a question you want the answer, you’ve only to ask
The result you want will lustre down from above
The ultimate goal for all is the essence of pure love

Why would people choose such pain to loose another?
In this life you may loose a son, daughter or a brother
Comfort at this time is all that can be offered out
Much more to life than this, I’ll tell you what its all about

Before your living memory you chose a set plan
It started in the beginning of your life span
Behold an endless guide than you set out in preparation
From a new home, first kiss, even death or a separation

Heaven being our real homes, earth being a school for learning 
You may chose to die young, gamble or to be high earning
Why? Is a question I’m asked to answer from time to time
But it’s easier for people to believe Jesus turned water to wine

To embrace God you must dissolve the padding around religion 
That for some can prove to be a difficult decision 
Loosing faith in the protection you thought was to care for you 
Ones’ you loose look down and wish you wasn’t so blue

To choose a path you feel is negative to you now
Makes you into a better person, but you must wonder how?
To learn from mistakes takes a developed soul
One can not be with out the other, that’s the karmic toll

Sleep easy knowing you will be with the ones you have lost
Eternal life and love with them at no extra cost
Just wait and see, you will remember this in years gone by
I will promise to meet you on the other side just to say ‘Hi’
