R.I.P Till Someday Meets Forever
From all tomorrows
you’ve been erased,
and all of our sorrows
drip to your lovely face
A light that was lit with forever
as mornings hand past twelve,
left this plain with the ferryman
in forever your light does delve
At first a shocking numbness
gripped us to the bone,
knowing that in the night
your spirit had off and flown
As tendrils of soul reach heaven
St Peter shall answer the door,
showing the way to forever
in the lights of golden floors
A rainbow of confetti will shower
to celebrate you coming home,
and we on the earth forgive you
for wandering afar to roam
A slice of life has slipped away
and submerged in I Am’s hold,
we will weep in your memory
our arms are gripped to fold
Fighting off that feeling
of emptiness inside,
remembrance is the key
to a place that calms the mind
—-
Deep breath
When you come again
will it be as gentle breeze?,
or will it be as rolling waves
and in the splashing of the seas
Could a gentle lark
alight upon a tree,
singing with a soul fullness
as ether-ed wings spread free
And as the moon in night
will you shine upon our face,
and as the Savior holds
with your presence he is graced
,
And as I silently cry
till a body jitters and it shakes,
and I’m wondering why
it was your soul that he did take
Please save a pair of wings
stained in Neon hues,
we’ll be the funniest Angels
and all of heaven will laugh blue
Its always at goodbye
that I startle like a doe,
but I will say we love you
till someday we meet aglow
So wait for me in tomorrow
with a sparkle in your eye,
I’ll bring you news of home
and on neon wings we’ll fly
And now I’ve said these words
I shall slowly fall apart,
knowing that your gone
is ripping at my heart
………………………………………………………Rip,till someday meets Forever
