Temporary Mass

You should know, we'll be right here with you as you come to your end
Though, some may say to end is to begin again
I love the notion of a body and a soul
You're never truly gone, you're just intangible

And I can learn to live with that
It's just a part of life
We are but temporary mass
Along the arc of time

What can be said?
I'll never comprehend the story that you've led
The road is far too long
A tale for every bend

And even words said at their best
Could never paint you right
But what we learn when faced with death
Is celebrate life

You should know, you won't go by yourself
We're with you till it’s sung
A song so beautiful it pulls you out and up
Oh, I love the notion of a body and a soul
You're never truly gone, you're just intangible

And yes, I cry with your last breath
My eyes are compromised
But I refuse to mourn your death
I celebrate your life!
