When You Left

You slipped away, the world stood still, As Heaven opened to guide you home.

One moment you were here, then you were free,

Carried by angels to eternity.

Did you see a light, warm and near?

Did someone familiar call you, my dear?

There was no pain, no struggle, no fear, Only warmth and light drawing you near.

Familiar voices, open arms, A place of peace, safe from harm.

Did you look back, just for a while, Did you see our tears, our broken hearts?

Wrapped in love that surrounded you, And through the pain with you gone, I feel your strength, that helps us carry on.

The ache cuts deep and true, Sometimes I swear I still feel you.

A brush of your love, a quiet hello, Reminding me you never truly let go.
