At Eternity's Gate

by punsandposes

Sometimes people don't want to let go, Sometimes they beg to stay, Sometimes they want to be on earth, Their death makes them sad, but there is no other way, And no matter where they go, heaven or hell, Their sorrow follows their souls, even on a bright new day, And when their sobbing specters arrive at eternity's gate, Their hearts are still and emptier still, And with their emptiness they must wait.
