Until I See You Again

Not a day has passed by that I haven’t thought about you,
And of the void you’ve left behind in that wooden church pew.
You left so suddenly and in the blink of an eye,
The news came as a shock; we still don’t understand why.
Truth is, though, you’ve gone home to a much better place;
When you took your last breath and looked upon your Master’s face.
The days to come won’t be easy; some may say they’ll be filled with grief;
But at your request, I’ll do my best to keep it brief.
For I know what awaits me when it’s my turn to go;
I’ll join you in Heaven to walk on those streets of gold.
What a time we’ll have when that moment is here;
As my faith will have helped me conquer my biggest fear.
Thank you for the times we spent together these last few years;
But for now I must go and wipe away these tears.
Until I see you again, go enjoy all of the fun to be had;
And say hello to those gone on before; don’t forget to hug your mom and dad.
