Poems For Jess

Heaven's Gate

I'm gonna hit Heavens gates running
When my time on earth is through
I'll run past Jesus outstretched arms
So I can get to you

I'll hold you in my arms again
And never let you go
My heart broke when you left this earth
In heaven it'll be made whole

I lie awake in bed at night
Wondering what it's like
In heaven with your angel friends
And Jesus by your side

Do you miss the ones you love
Who mourn your loss each day
Who look for answers and reasons why
You had to go away

I envy those who've gone before
And those who will proceed
To Heavens holy gates before
I from this earth will leave

That's why I'll hit Heavens gates running
When my time on earth is through
Because I know that once I leave this earth
I'll get to be with you

1258 Days

1258 days
Is all that we had
With you in our life
With me as your dad

Before your first seizure
240 days
Then 1018
In the post seizure haze

Just 41 months
3 birthdays
So many lives touched
In your short stay

You were so brave
So very strong
You filled our hearts
With your lifesong

Through it all
Hugs and kisses
As you taught us how
To bear what life gives us

We'll miss you so much
Each and every day
Til we hold you again
At heavens gate
