I stand high above the Earth,
As snow falls from the stars.
I watch the passing of time,
My head filled with the past,
Longing for those I held close,
And wishing I could tell them that I am still here.
They do not know that I am here:
My friends still cry for me on Earth.
They do not know I hold them close
In my new home in the stars.
Like me, they yearn for the past.
But we can’t defy the flow of time.
Far above, there too is time,
Although it works differently here.
It remains still – there is no past
To weep for, like down there on Earth.
The moments are eternal as the stars,
And to our dear ones, we are still close.
Though we are not as close
Physically as we once were, because our time
Has come and gone. We are like the stars,
Always watching from up here
Our loved ones who still walk the Earth,
And silently plead them to cease mourning for the past.
My friends, leave the past in the past,
But keep your memories close.
For one day, you, too, will leave Earth
And join the Angel’s sense of time.
We will spend eternity here,
Reunited amongst the stars.
But until you reach this place of stars,
I beg you, don’t shed a tear for the past.
Life your life – I will wait for you here.
Just hold my memory close,
As I watch you down on Earth.
And you can still see us, even from way up here;
Only cast your gaze heavenward: you will see us in the stars.
