love lives on

I lay here close
in Mommy's arms
all wrapped up
oh so warm

she holds me tight
a single light
shines so bright

I feel Mommy's kisses
her warm embrace
I feel her tears
touch my face

I see two hands
reach from the sky
they wrap around Mommy
a voice whispers, "don't cry"

then those two hands
wrap around me
and I am pulled
ever so delicately

and suddenly, yes
I remember this place
light, laughter and love fill the air
"you are home now child," the voice declares

looking down
I see Mommy below
I feel the wings
that now carry me to and fro'

my heart so full
with all your love
I have left your world
I've risen above

but please don't fret
always with you I will be
I am a piece of you
and you are a piece of me
