Hello from Heaven
I thought I would write you,
to let you know I'm here.
to add some comfort in your life,
because you think I'm not there.
You see I send you signs,
and let you know that I'm not far away,
but you haven't acknowledged them,
to this very day.
---------------------------------------------------
I was there to dry your tears,
the day you said "goodbye."
I was the little voice that whispered
in your ear, "don't cry."
I was the butterfly you seen,
that all around you flew.
To let you know that I was there
and always will be with you.
----------------------------------------------
You see although you can't see me,
doesn't mean that I'm not there.
I'm with you all the time,
everyday and everywhere.
I watch you try to go on without me,
struggling everyday.
How I wish you could feel me,
to take your pain away.
--------------------------------------------
You think that you have to visit me
in the earths cold ground.
My body only resides there,
but my spirit can't be found.
For I live today in a different form,
one you can not see.
So open your heart and mind,
look closer to see me.
------------------------------------------
You see I never left you,
I never went away.
I am still a part of you,
each and everyday.
Can you deny your feelings,
because someone said you should?
Wouldn't you want to talk to me,
if you thought you could?
---------------------------------------------
Why don't people want to believe,
what is so very real?
Why do they want to dismiss
what they really feel?
To many the truth is there,
but they remain blind.
Thinking they have to wait
for their loved one to find.
-----------------------------------------
Open your mind and your heart
and let me ease your pain.
Let you feel and hear me
and be with you again.
I know it's hard to believe,
but I hope you will find,
I never went far away
and I never left you behind.
