When I Leave

When I leave this life I will find my place in heaven. 
Where the angels will sing to me and make me feel peace. 
Where the pain that I feel will disappear and that hole inside will be filled.
The feeling of emptiness will be closed.
Here in this journey called life.
Knowing all that is expected of me, having the hope that one day I will feel 
relaxation. 
When I leave this life I will find my place in heaven. 
So do not cry for me when I am gone, just know that I am at peace. 
Feel no sadness; celebrate my life, because I have found my place in heaven.

Yes Amanda you do have a place in Heaven.And you have a hole inside.But you would leave a gaping hole here on earth not only to those you know of your intimate circle, but us here at Soup and all those who love your poetry, me included.So please continue writing for us and find that hope within you.Your words are beautiful,and you are valuable.Gradually I hope you will find peace and contentment in life.Meantime thank you for the pleasure you give us. God bless. Love June(Sylvia)
