to leave
this great earth of ours
my spirit will soar
with the exuberance and joy
that lives inside of me--
for in leaving this earth
I know
that I will again
be free.
Free to love,
to give,
to experience the depth
of a life beyond
what I am able now
to comprehend.
My spirit, my soul
will know no beginning,
will know
no end...
For in leaving
this mortal life
of the here and now
I will be entering
a much greater and wider realm
of the love and acceptance and truth
that I have always yearned to find,
always tried so very hard to see--
Once gone
from this life
I will at last, at last
be allowed, be given the gift
of just being ME.
Yes, one day...
