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 © 7/21/16 Thomas Quigley
