I looked back and saw a woman crying,
Many wailing sounds like someone was dying.
What was happening was my very concern,
For it was my funeral soon that I learned.
Very shocked and to my surprise,
My soul had ascended now to rise.
In complete shock I choked on my breath,
For I do not remember whence came my death.
How did it happen? How did I die?
I have to remember, I have to try.
I screamed and yelled to get their attention,
Unknown was my presence for no one to mention.
Soon came a light shining down on me,
Then came a voice saying,"come and see"
Come and see what I have planned for you,
Just trust my child though you have no clue.
Your job here is done and taken care of,
Your family will always have your love.
I will feel their emptiness once again,
Their pain I will ease and hearts I will mend.
I would miss my family, but had no choice,
I waited and debated, then came the voice,
Come my child we must now go,
Many things to see, and so much to know.
With God assuring me my family's restoration,
I walked toward the light with no hesitation.
I saw a heavenly figure suddenly appear,
With a voice so sweet and presence so dear.
The connection was complete walking hand and hand,
As we disappeared into the eternal land.
