Beyond That Door

From time to time I wonder

What’s on the other side of that door

Where most of my loved ones now live

And can I be a visitor

To be with families

And animals too

To share love and hugs

Long over due

So many things

I never got to say

Always something unexpected

Got in the way

But even beyond words

Emotions between Heaven and Earth

To look in familiar eyes

And see my own worth

Cause I miss them all

So much more than words can tell

But I know they’re in my heart

My heart’s deepest well

Sometimes I feel their presence

Within a metaphor

My thoughts always look

Beyond that door
