Painless is the slide

As we devolve into a puddle

Falling down a mountain

That we have already climbed.

We are all destined to lose

And we are all destined to die

Willing or not

Bonded and bought. 

If we had not loved

We would not have wept

But if we had not tried

Then we would not know.

Rare is the euphoria

When time stands still

The stuff of dreams

Irreplaceable and sublime.

When we are fully alive

Sharing and loving

Our spirits burning

In a like-minded synch. 

It is written in the stars

And it is written in our hearts

Long before we were born

We were paid in full. 

The gift is ours

If only we would take it

Embracing fully

Who we really are. 

When we look back

Sometimes we mourn

And we feel that sting

Piercing our heart.   

It is then I remember

To ask for my needs

Crying out to God

For comfort and grace.

Every need and every time

I keep on knocking

And I keep on trying

Listening and waiting

My head upon his heart.

We will yet see each other

And we will embrace and laugh

More than enough

To last forever.
