Soul Away

All of a sudden there is a hole in our hearts,

An empty space....a hollow empty space..

A life has just slipped away

Like a sudden pull and the pearls slip away..

God does this often when he is in need

Of a good soul, a pure soul...

Afterall we are his children & he can always say,

"Child, playtime is over. It's time to come home."

So we can be sad for our friends

Or just be glad that they have reached home

Where they can be free, free as a bird

And fly across the ocean, the sea & into the next world..

Dear friend, you were a gem of a person

You will always live within us all..

Our minds may forget but our hearts will not,

May you rest in peace.
