You’ve Gone Home by Will Hamilton
A beautiful poem from our friend Will. He continues to light our way and I am honored to have him.
Here’s email to me in regards to this powerful poem.
I thought you’d stay
I thought I’d be taking care of you for quite a while
But you decided to leave your body and return
To the eternal love of which you are and
have always been a part…
I think back to our first meeting
It seems so long ago, but in reality it’s just a blink of an eye…
I remember the good times
I remember the laughter
Even when it was at my expense…
I really loved you babe…
And I’m so blessed you loved me too
Heck, we had differences, as any two people would
But I loved you babe…
You were always here
You were always my rock
You made life easy for me
I’ve been the one who was strong
Through the service
Through meeting people
Helping them understand that you knew
You are a soul with a body and now
The body is gone and you, the soul
Fly into heavens great embrace….
The team of angels you brought with you
Help you relax and get organized in this place we call
The other side…
You know it’s funny,
But I found out more about love taking care of you
These past few years than all the fun times we had
Love isn’t always laughter and dancing…
Sometimes it’s just a sincere genuine concern
That asks, “How can I make your day a little better?”
Cause I love you babe
I promise I’ll remember the good times
I’ll remember the laughter,
I’ll remember the hugs
I’ll remember the warmth of your tender embrace.
I’ll remember how you believed in me
And I’ll remember the times I believed in you
The times we worked together
To build a wall
To build a pond
To build a life together…
I really don’t know what my future brings
Right now I’m not sure I care
All I know is I miss you babe
I’m so glad you let me share my time with you
I’m so glad you are finally free
Run with your angels
Fly with the clouds
Regroup all you did to help others,
Remember your kindness and consideration
Remember how giving and loving you are
Remember how much you were loved my friend
And please remember, I love you babe!

Isn’t it beautiful how the bonds of love come out of the shared experiences where we work together or serve each other, even in the little daily things? As a wonderful reward that relationship is adorned with the blessings of joy and laughter. Those bonds are unbreakable in a way that only love can create them. So much sweeter to know that they will remain tied through time, and space, the physical and the beyond. Still, there is the time and the space that divide, but yet for only a short time. It is a beautiful thing to remember and find joy in the happiness of someone you love. A beautiful poem from a tender heart. May it be a blessing to you many fold.
Will
