Undying Legacy


At a loss for words cause I’m at a loss for you
And contending in my heart for what I know is true
In the dual reality of life and what is death
Existing in the sentiments of this vapor
Learning to understand the purpose of a breath
Memories on life support of friends, photographs, and paper
 
Drafting the blueprints in a sales pitch for my heart
As if I’ve still got something to prove
When you were my greatest affirmation from the start
Unconditional love is something I can’t lose
 
But your voice was a concentrated dose
And living here without you is like waking up in comatose
Awaken me to the knowing that you are but an echo of the truth
God in the evidence expressed through your love as the proof
 
You were there when no one else was
A reminder that I am not alone
Caught up at odds with this reality
Lord knows that you’re not gone, you’ve just gone home
 
I rejoice at the thought of heaven’s gain
To know the Son is shining where you are
Is comfort in the hard times despite this present pain
So close to my heart and yet so far
 
No regrets only investments made
No records kept of all the ways that I’ve been wrong
What am I but a conduit of a legacy that will never fade?
With a voice as one with yours, I sing the song
 
As we all like channels of a glory that transcends
Finds us the beneficiaries of a place where love never ends
Free from the death that finds us here longing for the day
When we will be reunited once again
As heaven dawns breaking through every sky of gray
 
I love you now and always, and I won’t say goodbye
Because there’s no such thing as farewell
For though we pass away in this moment, we never truly die…
