Heaven My Final Destination
I was on the freeway in gridlock traffic
holding onto my seat
as people dove in and out of lanes
afraid for my life
anxiety escalating
I became so weary of the drive
as we would pass homes
I found myself wishing that was my house
then I would be at my final destination
my body could finally rest
I was thinking of dying in fear
in a horrible car accident
or a lingering death by sickness
I found myself wishing I was safe in heaven
without all the pain
at peace at last
safe in the cosmos
in the mansion prepared for me
the one I dream of
a place of many rooms
where my soul is at ease
somewhere my whole family can come together
I'm weary of the journey
life is like traveling the freeway
so many twists, turns and scares
close calls and the like
let this be a prayer
just bring me home safe my creator
let me learn my lessons and bring me to your bosom
*Author's note these are things I really think about admist all the darkness

I think about them too B
Like the Freeway connection, are you a good driver ?
I haven't owned a car in 43 years .....
Wanna take the subway with me ?

I feel this write so deeply, Brenda.
Something in which I think of often.
You expressed it all so beautifully.
Thought pondering ink, lovely. 💓

Darkness, fear, sadness, it all makes us human. We are never just one thing. I'm not sure what the after life holds, but you are a very kind person. All the pain just might be a test at the end of it all 😁
Great write Crim 🤗

A beautifully written prayer Lady Crim, one that moved me to tears. We must acknowledge but not be dominated by our dark sides. Thank you for this!

So beautiful, Crim, the struggle truly felt in your words along with that overwhelming ache to finally be at peace. You don't have to be religious to feel it, just human...

I know these thoughts and feelings all to well... to me, life is just an obstacle we have to work through before our souls will be set free...
Great write, dear Crim!
