A POEM A DAY 135

in HEAVEN

Speak to me
As you spoke to me 
In heaven
When you were five
And I was seven
Do you recall those nights
When our souls would meet
And we walked hand in hand
Down golden streets
We didn’t have a 
Care in the world
You were the boy that I loved
And I was your girl
Maybe you don’t remember
That many moons ago
Because life has tossed you
To and fro
But me, I remember
Everything I don't
Want to forget
Like the sound of your voice
Or the day that we met
Tonight, while you sleep, friend
I'll reach out my hand
Not to the boy
But to the man
And if my hand you wish to take
I will lead you back to the place
Where our souls would meet
And we'll walk hand in hand
Down golden streets
And you'll speak to me
As you spoke in heaven
When you were five
And I was seven
