As we lay

You to rest.

We start to reflect on what we are doing with our lives.

And some will strive to do more, for our time is always limited.

But we forget because we get so caught up in what we can do today and tomorrow.

But what happens when no tomorrow comes and we don’t get it done?

Will our spirits end up being restless?

There is so much to think about, but as we move forward, someone can’t go ahead with us because they have served their time.

And as you float away from the world full of pain, joy, confusion, anger, and so many more emotions.

You are at peace as you are released from your pain, and God gains another. As Our tears fall together, the loss becomes one. And we share memories, and as the tears dry up for a moment, we laugh and hug and share the love all around.

Knowing time will heal this loss, too, we must take it one day at a time.
