It's okay

I am at peace now, It's okay
I'm set free, I've gone to rest
before my God & elders I bow.
wanting, needing to know, did I pass the tests?

Smile and know, life's pains now past.
your sorrow, please let it fade.
My tracks ended, I've lain my last.
each in turn, put me to rest, take the spade

spirit in mountain meadows veiled in misty rains
these my ghost will search
no tears, I've had enough, nothing to gain
my soul to rest within my church

the roads been long indeed
each stride has found a stone
strangling soul, over run with weed
at times brightly have I shown

the worst regret I fear
I saw her born, then taken away
her laugh, sweatest of sounds, I no longer hear
in my mind she will always fuss and play

try and try again we coin
strengths fade, will be gone
first concieved but not to be, now I join
mercy I pray to come, to end this song

for those I left behind,
know this, I just couldn't stay
happiness and peace I hope you find
I just want to say in passing, .... It's okay.
