Soaring To Heaven

Upon death, I’m soaring to the stars Bearing all the hurt and the scars Of a life I’ve suddenly left behind Wonderful memories, many treasures to find My spirit has left my body now Sailing through the clouds somehow Ascending to the great unknown This beloved earth, I’ve now outgrown Wedding bells have turned to rust My body returning to the earthly crust I long to see my wife again She’s been gone now for almost ten I’ve arrived at a majestic heavenly gate A sense of belonging and timeless fate As they open, I’m greeted by friends and kin I can feel their light without their skin My wife steps forward to a loving embrace An angelic glow upon her youthful face Together again after all these years We rejoice in a flood of ethereal tears
