Where It All Goes
The fate that once united our lone souls
Has turned and torn away this world's soft veil.
If only for a word that could console
And stop the color in me bleeding pale
Yet, light that once reflected off your face
That magic sunlit day in summer’s park
It travels somewhere still, through time and space
Warm rays of your love yet give light to dark
The sounds of your voice echo in my ears
Soft waves that crested gently on my sea
are drowned in the vibrations of this sphere
yet always will resound inside of me
But most of all the love you freely gave
still radiating out from its sweet start
I hold it close so it can keep me brave
a treasure trove of you within my heart
But these things don’t just vanish in the void
Although it seems the've left us with no trace
The heart knows they will never be destroyed
In time, they come together in that place
Where all that is eternal reunites
And all the love that’s been returns again
The center of bright, coalescing light
Our destiny, in God’s joyous domain
