When life’s challenges
Become too heavy to bear...
It’s in the cemeteries
That I come to share...
My loving memories
Of having you in my life...
For it’s you who takes away
My fears and strife...

Strolling peacefully
Among the silent tombs...
Like resting comfortably
In our mothers’ wombs...
Listening to quiet voices
Sharing stories of love...
Making one aware
Of a perfect world above...

Tranquil walks
Among resting souls...
Sharing memories
Of lifetime goals...
Comfortably knowing
That the next chapter begins...
With a warm embrace
From family and friends...

One should never worry
When the end finally arrives...
As Our Lord opens up
His warm and inviting skies...
Knowing that together
We will once again be...
In our mothers’ loving embrace
For all the world to see...
