Secret Sign
You've battled hard and so long, dear one
Life is so brief- time, the berry of the vine
A shooting star skipping over a pond.
Glimpses of the hereafter divine.
Time to leave this world far behind.
Shed earthly shells, take to the sky,
Isn't life cruel, but isn't life fair.
My heart will go on beating
but will never fully repair.
Now take my hand, dear one, it's time to say our final goodbye.
Take my hand, dear one
Close those pretty blue eyes.
When you reach that timeless golden side,
Please send me our sweet secret sign.
