Time for goodbyes

Please,
hold my hand and watch me go,
slip away to somewhere far.

Where darkness does not exist.
Where light is ever there to guide.
Where warmth and happiness and smiles
replace hours, places ,dates and miles.
Where every person knows how to love,
to comfort, befriend and truthful be.
Where sadness is not a thing that thrives,
where children are beautiful and free.
Where the entrance is not barred by devil's faces
and a welcome waits for each and every one
of all who dare to take the steps to heaven
and step aboard with angels, without fear.

Please,
hold my hand and watch me go,
let me slip away, but do not cry.

Hold my hand now,
please,
for now, I know
this is my time,
so kiss me as I die.
