This Last Letter

Dear,—-

I hope you see me dance, In my struggles, Through my tears, Holding on to the Joy of the Lord, As my only strength through the years.

I hope you see me dance, Through the pain, Just as David felt his loss was too great, With nothing else to gain.

I pray you see me dance, In the setting of the sun, In thousands of ocean drops, When my time here on earth is done.

I pray you see me dance, On the shimmering wings of dragonflies and hearts so dear, Always believing angels, Jesus and me are near.

I pray you see me dance, In the eyes of a child, As they laugh and play and grow, And reminisce of me for a little while.

I hope you see me dance, Realize just how much I loved—love you still, How proud I am of you, Forever have been, forever will.

I hope you forgive, Forgive me—of any words spoken out of turn—And while you’re forgiving, forgive yourself, All is well with us, I am happy, I am free.

There are things we both wish, We could have done better, If only life were perfect, If only I had written this last letter.

But it’s not, and I didn’t—So, know— I will be watching you dance, Smiling as you live your best life, And cheering you on through your grief and strife.

Because, you see, you still have a story to tell, And some living yet to do, So, please don’t waste it on might-have-beens, This is what I want for you.

Together, I promise, we will dance someday, When we meet again, In Heaven—healing complete, no more worries…no more regrets…no more pain.

So, this is bye for now.

P.S.

PLEASE be happy!!!! Be at peace….And dance for me!

Love Always,—-

Xoxo
