Just as I gave up...

Tear drops on the palm of one hand,
a flower in the other..
I come to weep beside your grave
And be close to each other.

It's been so hard this thing called life..
How much more can I take?
My heart is weak. My mind is blurred.
Your guidance is all I seek.

I cannot go on without you near.
Your strength, your love..I need you here.
I bow my head and start to pray
That He also takes me away.

At once a warm breeze surrounds my being
Like arms wrapped tight around me.
A voice comes near and rings about,
"My child can't you just see?

I may have gone too soon from here,
Leaving you full of sorrow.
But Heaven needed an Angel
To look after you tomorrow.

Today this life is just a test,
To only bring you to the best.
Be patient; Be humble. Forgive in your heart.
Soon, we will no longer be apart.

Now take my word as I hold your hand
In your heart, you must understand..
Don't cry my child, beyond here lies
The beautiful gates of paradise."
