Pathway to Heaven

Pathway To Heaven

Every day it grows, this feeling I cannot control
I’m lost in a downward spiral praying that one day it will end
My heart once full, is now a gaping whole
You were to busy to see, that it would not mend

I felt desperate, as if locked inside a cage
My soul needed held, reassured like a little child
Instead I was always told, “grow up and act your age”
You didn’t know you would be the last number dialed

I wanted to have someone I could trust
Someone that wouldn’t mock my fear
I understand, laugh if you must
Soon I will no longer be here

There was only one place my soul felt free
You could never understand a love that deep
You did not care, and took her away from me
I still visit her every night in my sleep

I’m closing the door on the life I once knew
Taking off this mask I’ve had to wear
For my days of pretending to be fine are through
This my only thoughts left to share

I’m starting to get tired, it will be over soon
My breath quickly fading, I know it is my last day
I hear music, such a beautiful tune
The path to heaven, illuminated by the moon

I’m with the angels now, my broken heart mend
Love surrounding me, I no longer alone
This is how I wanted my story to end
I am safe, I am at home
