Grief is like a moving river, it’s always changing. I would say in some ways it just gets worse. It’s just that the more time that passes, the more you miss someone.
~Michelle Williams
When I’ve finished all the work
that God has planned for me,
when all the bedtime tuck-ins are just a memory,
I’ll see you soon.
When I’ve no more ponytails to make,
no clothes to wash or things to get straight,
no bags to pack, no to-do’s except to find you,
I’ll see you soon.
When the sunsets have faded and the laughter has gone quiet,
when the world becomes more silent than I’ve ever found it,
I’ll see you soon.
When tears become smiles and emptiness is gone,
when we finally get to where we all belong,
I’ll see you soon.
There will be no need for catching up
or filling in,
hearts speak a language of what has always been.
Plan to show me around, and give me the tour,
the moment our hearts here have been waiting for,
I’ll see you soon.
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.
~Revelation 21:4
