Waiting at the Door

I can’t explain so deep inside
The very fabric of my soul
Only a heart that grieves such loss
Can ever truly understand

It’s like you’re waiting at the door
Until a loved one comes back home
You feel a longing in your heart
When they appear the longing stops

But in a loss that never ends
You’re always standing at that door
You feel the longing in the breeze
So incomplete and never filled

I cannot find the words to say
Just what it’s like to want forever
Never seeing them again
Just always waiting at the door

FOR ROBERTS MUM XXX

Next to you

You cannot see or touch me
But I'm standing next to you.
Your tears will only hurt me,
Your sadness makes me blue.
Be brave and show a smiling face
Let not your grief show through.
I love you from a different place,
Yet I'm standing next to you.

Thought of you when i read this R.I.P XXX

In The Arms of Angels
In the arms of the angels
Is where you rest today
In the arms of the angels
That keep you safe in everyway

In the arms of the angels
Up in heaven you will roam
In the arms of angels
Until your mother does come home

In the arms of angels
With their warmth and heavenly charm
In the arms of angels
Keeping us all safe from harm

In the arms of angels
You will wait at heavens door
In the arms of angels
We will be together forever more

In the arms of angels
Together we will lay
In the arms of angels
Forever we will stay

In the arms of angels
In heaven up above
In the arms of angels
We will share eternal love...
