NOT REALLY GONE

Dedicated to my grandma for her father!

God has made a time for everyone,
God has made a plan,
For every man created,
Shaped by His loving hand,
Everyone is made for each their own,
Different from others down to the bone,
Everyone born to do their own task,
When the task is fulfilled, many breaths come to last,
Dying though is not the end of living,
Because the afterlife is just another task begining,
Your father has forfilled his life living task,
So he's off to his new life, he has past,
He's gone away but not really, his new task just begun,
Life holds many journeys, walking on Earth is just one,
Why God choose his dad now we'll never understand,
He passed away with many years, I guess that was God's plan,
Remember he's off to a better place after being on Earth all these years,
Resting from all the hurt he's been through, all the pain and tears,
He'll never be gone to the people he brought happiness to and touched their hearts,
He'll just be away, they'll just be apart
Well I'm sorry he's gone, my sympathy is all to you,
But honestly, he's not gone because your father will always live in you.
