towards heaven

towards heaven

i drew those moments,
both you and i shared,
my very first dog and barbie endowed by you,
my courage embossed by your praises,
my inheritance of your palm.

your pamper is forever,
your hugs ever warm,
your smile never leaves
your love lanterned me,
yours words engraved deep inside,

i treasured the tales you told,
all deep in my chest of memory,
the knowledge you stored,
instilled deep,
like water in crystal.

i know, i know,
your redundent love on this gem
will never fade,
i am never prouder than being your gem,
how blessed i am,
to be in your arms.

i missed the last ride,
before you departure,
something i deeply regret,
yet so glad ,
because you assured me of your destiny.

where HIS love will be coating you,
and all your pain refunded with joy,
serenaded by peace and beauty,
while protected from dark,
in this LAND where you belong.
