Life After Death
I believe in life after death
Call me a fool but our spirit is all we have left,
Once we leave our earthly bodies what is in the casket is nothing but flesh
So why doe's it matter on how we are dressed,
All the money we spend to put our loved ones to rest
It is very comforting to us to know we did our very best,
The reality is we don't know the difference once we are dead
I guess you could say this is our last bed,
Your spirit is free to roam around
We whom are left behind will not even walk on their sacred ground,
Where the grave site is due to the respect of our loved one
Who lies beneath the dirt because their lives here on earth are done,
They probably watch us from above
To protect us all out of love,
We need not feel bad for their loss
Because after all we are the ones that still have to cross,
I am sure they are happy where they are
Just due to the fact that their spirits are not very far.
