The garden

We looked around the garden

we found an empty space

looking down upon the earth

we saw your tired face.

We picked you up and brought

you to rest.

The garden is beautiful but 

faith took you away.

We cried and cried but to no

avail, our tears kept fertilizing

the garden but did not bring you

back to us. 

Our hearts followed you 

thinking of the journey ahead,

we found a door that closed just

as you stepped in, we knocked

but the door did not budge, so we

understood that it was not our time

to follow you.

Dear love, do not despair we shall

meet soon, I don't intend staying

here for much longer, we were 

meant to be together and so it shall

be...
