HEAVEN
The playing field is even now;
Everything is fair.
Did you know since I’ve been gone
I haven’t felt despair?
I just received my angel wings
And flew through heaven’s gate.
Everything is whole again;
I’ve finally cleaned my slate.
The light looks really different here,
The air is fresher too.
Everyone is happy now—
It all looks so brand new.
I sat upon a rainbow’s curve
And looked along its bend.
It greeted me so graciously
And said it’d be my friend.
It said that it’d watch o’er you
And visit very soon.
“Don’t worry much,” it promised me,
“The rain will pass by noon.”
I know things feel confusing now,
And I’m sad you’re stuck on earth.
But know that I will wait for you
Until your own rebirth.
I’ll save a special seat for you,
Right here next to me.
And when your day has finally come,
My heart will sing with glee.
