At Peace

At Peace
I feel so light Like I'm floating As I wander to Our Morning spot
I get there And see my friends, Depressed, each With tear stained cheeks
I don't know why They're so sad All I feel is this warmth inside, This peace I have never felt before
I go to give one A hug but She doesn't notice me And is comforted by another
Getting rather annoyed I got to my classes And not one of my teachers Calls on me
After school, I feel Like I am flying As I go to another building Where I travel to one room
And there she sits In all her solemn serenity Not even acknowledging me A purple notebook sitting in front of her and wings behind her
I leave and go home To an empty house I open the door to my room But appear in another hall.
I know this hall I walk down three steps Into big sister's den She's there, crying.
My other big sister And big brother Are there Crying
I walk over to them Yet they do not notice me Brushing a tear aside I leave and end up in the gym
It's a school dance And I notice my friends I walk towards them And than I see him
In white, like he was Walking towards me, smiling I know I'm hallucinating But it feels so real as we dance.
He kisses my forehead Just like he had Just like any cousin would And I feel something flow through me
I realize I know How it will be I've seen the future And somehow I know its true.
With the new sun I watch everyone I know And as I stand outside one room I see them all talking
This time I notice the wings I could never have seen before I smile and say goodbye Knowing somehow I'll see them again.
I walk around and think About the car crashes, the gunshots, The fires, the drugs, the poisons, The murders Than I'm walking on shores I recognize I see my older siblings Toss something into the water Followed by a wreath of roses
When next I see anyone They're standing over a plaque Flowers in hand, tears in eyes I look daringly down
But before I can read it I see him again He beckons me to follow As so I do
He offers me a hand And next I'm sitting on a cloud He hands me a mirror And I see the plaque
I read it, The dates ring clear in my head May 29th 1988- September 30th 2003 That was three days ago, the plaque is mine
I realize for the first time What this warmth is The calmness and peace In knowing everyone is alright
The world I live in know Is timeless and beautiful You age, but its very hard to Keep track of years
I'm asked to come to the Gates Where the new ones arrive There are many But I recognize only one
Someone says she was A top angel, and somehow I'd known Long before today She smiles and I smile back
In this timeless world Nothing has changed And as I let my wings move me I feel completely at peace.
