Heaven (2)

From time to time, we lose someone
And fear they’ve gone away.
We search all around but never do find
A way to make them stay.
Often we wonder where we went wrong
And what more we might have done.
We seek the message inside a song
A search that’s never won.
It’s always hard to say goodbye
When we’re not ready yet.
Our thoughts bring many tears to our eyes
Because we can’t forget.
It’s well for us, when a friend moves on
After their life is lived.
That Heaven has a place to form a bond
Where there’s even more to give.
When you lose your friend be sure to know
They’re in a better place.
Where they still can thrive and still can grow
While filled with peace and grace.
So, whenever you are feeling down
And times are getting hard.
Know that your friends are waiting for you
Way up there, above the stars.
