Silent Goodbye

by Bobbie J. Brown - Scorpio

My time has come
and now He's here.
The Lord's love
will take away my fear.
I can no longer fight
for this life of mine.
Soon I will see the light
because for me it shines.
Tell everyone I love them
with all my heart
and I won't forget them
even though we'll be apart.
It hurts, I understand
to watch me slip away,
but holding your hand
I will be each and everyday.
Please don't cry
when it's time to go.
After my last breath tonight,
I want you all to know -----
I'll be looking down
from Heaven's gate
without a sound
making sure you're safe.
When you need me
watch the stars
there I will be
listening from afar.
Don't be upset
and mad at the world.
Simply think of it
as my blessing from the lord.
----- I don't mean to leave
all my loved ones behind,
but finally I'll be at peace.
I can feel it inside.
I am ready Lord,
I've said all my goodbyes.
Please let's go before
these tears fall from my eyes.
