While I rest here in Heaven,
I watch you every day.
I use signs to connect with you,
Hoping you’ll see I never went away.
I’m with you when you are thinking,
I’m beside you as you’re sleeping.
I wrap myself tightly around you,
To calm you while you’re weeping.
Please don’t feel guilty,
Not even for one more day,
Our love only grows and grows,
In every loving way.
Heaven is certainly beautiful,
This I cannot lie.
But until we shall meet again,
Please stop asking why.
It’s okay to live your life,
And to place your trust in me.
Because here in the AfterWorld,
Only our Love . . . can set us free.
