Another Friend
Inspired by: Robert Davis
R.I.P. my friend
Another friend "died" today. Into arms of peace, love, and truth. That's where this friend gets to stay. All of his pain and loneliness, finally washed away.
Another friend "died" today.
Freed from doubt, worry, and fear. God, why on earth would we want him down HERE.?. He is basking in the true nature of his soul.!. We're in Hell, and he's gone home. :-(
Time is man-made. Our bodies are only temporary gifts. Be grateful for these moments with family and friends.
Use the magic that each one of us possess, to remember what is and will always be. Rather than what could have been and you will truly see.
That as another friend "died" today, his mother held him close. Though tears of pain rolled down her face, in her heart she already knows that she will one day see him again when it's her turn to go.
Another friend "passed on" today to be Another Angel waiting patiently. He'll walk you through the light and wave you into eternal love when your human work is done.
I imagine another friend that "died" one day, is there to walk me in. She turns to me and smiles, and says, "it's okay, I've missed you too friend."
She'll probably joke, hit my arm,and laugh, then tell me, " hey, remember when you thought i died, that was pretty funny. Cuz I've been with you every step of the way. So I'm glad you're home again. Check these wings out dude, they are for YOU.!. Now fly with me, come on, let's go.!. We need to help another friend, still living down below. I can hear him praying for strength to go on. Because he is missing you So.!. We can hold his hand and whisper to his heart that death does not exist, to keep faith, cuz one day He'll KNOW...
That another friend just 'went home' today. So be happy even though, he may no longer be there in body...
his spirit rests in True Loves Beauty. Keep faith and hope in love together and we will soon be shown."
That Another Friend 'moved on' today. Thank God our loved ones never GO away. They are the angels all around us. Protecting over us as we live confined in these walking, talking tombs.
I love you and miss you much my friend.
Save a spot for me next to Elvis and Katybug please.
R.I.P. mechanical BJ. Until we meet again.!.
