Sleeper

She is still sleeping
Like she had for days on end
Dreaming there and dreaming again
In our time she'd so little life left to live
It was time for her to move on and forgive
She was ready
She knew what was promised
And the matters of her past
Would be completely erased
In the perfect moment
When she gets to taste
Eternity
The open door waiting there
So ready
And she was so prepared
For that moment, just living
For others, giving everything
So that she'd be there
Walking through that open door
In that second
When her name is called
And time stops ticking
She will go
Into the unknown
And she'll be restored
And every dream she ever had
Pales in comparison
To what she now knows
Where there is no pain, and hope echoes
