My life is not over
I just started a new birth
but I learned many things
while here on earth.
I learned to trust God
and in all that you do
he will forgive your sins
because he never stops loving you.
I learned to feel secure and never alone,
I learned God has a place for me
and it's my heavenly home.
I had a destiny and it was to be free.
One day I heard someone calling my name,
It's time to come with me.
It's time to come home, my child, for I am your heavenly king.
Enter my gates with praise and rejoice as my angels sing.
Don't worry about your family, for they will not be left in grief.
Now since you all know where I'm going, I won't say goodbye,
Because we'll meet again.
I'll just say, "See you in heaven"
To all my family and friends.
FROM YOUR BABY SISTER, ARTREASE. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU.
I lost my older brother earlier this year to AIDS and this poem truly touched my heart and soul..His partner took his ashes to Hawaii yesterday and I am just feeling like it is truly his time...
It's Time To Come Home
