So Short

Your time here was short
I can’t even grasp the air
Because you were just standing there
And now you’re gone
Somewhere I’ll never belong
And is it so wrong
To be okay
What is it you say
That everything works out okay
And it’ll all be fine
But there were moments you were mine
And days we stepped out of time
Is it a crime
That I’m strong
And the wind tells me that I belong
Somewhere rarified
But when you died
It’s like you cracked the shell
That had encased me so well
And I can’t keep the light out
It’s beyond all doubt
That you know exactly what I’m about
Like you always did
Now you are His
And look on from afar
But near is really what you are
Closer than close
No more lying to the Holy Ghost
But keeping the peace
What is it of you that hasn’t ceased?
