This Won'T Be Long

To my little angels,
I will be gone for a while.
This won't be long, promise I'll be back soon.
I'll just go somewhere, that isn't far.
I'll go beneath myself, I'll soar in the wind up high.
I will take a journey all alone...
But I will bring all your smiles in my heart.
Your sweet kisses and warmest hugs.
Your smells inside my pocket.
Your endless demand when I'm awake.
And promise, I will always blow a kiss in heaven.
To send you everyday when you awoke.
I wanna buried myself for a meantime.
To kill all pain that I feel.
To once again, to have myself be born.
To create a new person in me.
A stronger one, a better might be.
I will reflect all the wrong that I've done.
Then forgive myself, let the sorrow be gone.
And weigh what's the best to choose.
Is it the life with someone who drowned me in tears,
Or a life with my children, alone and free.
I'll be gone for awhile to surrender myself to,
In the arms of a loving Father, I'll ask the courage.
To surpass this challenge he let me into.
And when I wake up one day, then find my way home.
I hope to see your smiles, embracing me 'til tomorrow.

Very heartfelt...and yet, somehow, so sad. But you speak of the future with hope. That makes for a positive ending, I presume. // paul
