Calling you home
When we leave this place,
I don’t want you to be afraid.
I want everyone to know that the place we all go,
Is indescribable.
For I have seen in dreams,
More than once, the place that we shall go.
And it is truly magnificent.
A soul submerged in pure ecstasy, warmth, love, happiness, and peace.
Such feelings our bodies can not feel.
That only the mind can taste.
So bitter sweet, tempting you in limited time.
His kingdom, Limitless...
The universe will surround you, hold you.
And his light will engulf you.
You will fly through the universe at such speed.
Reaching for your home.
And your father’s bright eyes will be watching you come home.
His voice is all you hear.
Quiet, yet earth shaking.
Calling you home.
