Five Story Castle In The Sky

There's a place I'll be where life can't ever end
There'll be no measure of time or moments to recall
There will be much value in form of extreme love on the winds
And, weightless to the world so I could never fall...

I will build it with these two hands created of the blood
Of my Mother and Father with such enormous love
Layer by layer will each have a priceless meaning to hold
My five story castle in the sky can never grow old...

My first layer will be made straight from the heart
Will stand strong from the words I was taught to understand
So, God be with you my Mother and Father, I heard you all along
From you, this floor will be built just from who I am...

My second layer will know only of what God placed in my arms
Will be molded with sweetness beyond any gift received
It's going to be textured in nothing but pastel pink and blue
Smothered with eternally grateful walls for my children and me...

The third layer will consist of solid surroundings of where I've been in life
With it's maze like features throughout the whole floor
Each step through I will know again, peace, joy, and hope
And, every corner will remind me just what I've been living for...

The fourth floor will be a silhouette of those who carried me in the palm of their hands
And, in stone will be their souls just the same
Structured with some delicacy, some laughter, and an endless song
Will be my friendship floor carved with each of your names...

The fifth story will be the most easiest to build
Cause, I have a lot of faith and extreme free will
Every method I create throughout will have wings before your eyes
My fifth floor will be for and with God way on into that sky...

I didn't forget to build my foundation to this awesome place
I just waited to reveal this person's wonderful face
You must have something beyond tough to hold this place up
So, I will build it from the only one who ever cared this much...

Built with freedom this foundation will be plain to see
Built with the courage he is giving to me
My Friend out there you know who you are and what you've been
So, my five story castle will lie strongly as my love for him...

Deeply, truly, and everlasting will be viewed
When my castle shines up there in front of all of you
You'll witness my Friend's heart in many shades all the way around
And, once I am through building this castle, I'm never coming back down...

That is one very fine castle, Sauni. And each floor is unique, designed just for you.
