Permission To Live

Mourn not for me any longer
Let the bagpipes cry out in their last breath
Give the resting doves their freedom,
I’ve arrived to home,
And eternal rest.

I know how heavy your heart remains,
And I know how much you loved.
But the time has come to breathe once again
For I’m home,
And I’ve earned my rest.

There are new hearts on the horizon for you.
There are dreams to cast at the starlit night sky,
And I will touch each one, so you know you’ve my blessing.
From here at home,
Where I forever rest.

To every time, there is a season,
And my season passed last summer’s birth,
But yours, my lady fair, is just begun
And I watch from home
Where I rest.

oh seraphin

I could hear the bagpipes
in their mournful song
and the dreams to cast at the
starlit night sky...
magnificent line
