Heavens

My place in the sky,
Are you moving nearby?

Are you there waiting for me,
When things go awry?

Will your gates open,
At my faithful return?

Or will you stay closed,
Because I refuse to turn?

If I die, before my time,
Will you accept me?
What then will I learn?

Heavens above me,
Grab my spirit, and lift.

I will not remain much longer,
and if you don't do it,
Then I'll make the shift.
