Our World Now

Alex Arnot

Rest now your weary eyes

For when you awaken, you're once more mine

Take my hand and leave behind

Your mortal shell while your essence shines.

 

Hear my voice call your name

Your beautiful soul has never changed

Exposed to me now what was within

That always radiated beneath your skin.

 

Now you leave your grief behind

And join me now outside of time.

No longer longing for the stars

The Earth, the sea, the sky is ours.

 

We'll dance amongst the midnight flora

And illuminate it with our aura.

Joy beyond the moon and sun,

Fills me now that we are one.

    I like the clever stars-ours rhyme. This is very well penned and proves you have empathy and can clearly see from another's perspective, though that person be much older. My condolences to you, grandpa and family.
