Written when I found out my Nanny wasn’t going to be with us on this earth much longer.
I don’t know how to put words to my emotions, that my heart is feeling
I don’t know why it hurts so bad to lose someone you love
I know that she’ll be going to a better place
I know that I will struggle because I don’t understand
In heaven you will dance
In heaven you will have no pain
In heaven you will be full of joy
In heaven you will be forever with our eternal king
Down on this earth is full of confusion
Down here there are things that are never justified
Down here it’s hard to hope for a day without pain
Down here it’s hard to see an empty seat at our table
My heart is torn, because I will miss you
My heart is glad, because I know you will be free
My heart is conflicted, I am so sad to see you go
My heart is filled with the promises that I will one day see you again
