I was listening to the song 'God only cries for the living.' This is the poem that came from it. View table of contents...

The family gather around.

Sad faces and teary eyes.

A sobbing mother,

A red eyed father.

Siblings, Aunts, and Uncles.

All sit in the pews.

Grieving for their loss.

But sympathy isnt far away.

God is watching them.

Teary eyed as well.

But only for them.

Not the one who passed on.

Because the one who passed on,

Is coming home.

They are the ones so far from home.

They are the ones who must carry on.

Hearts heavy with sorrow.

God cries for them.

For us.
