When it's Time

love now drifts heaven bound
somewhere up there in the ether
one day soon to be re-found
til then the stars shine brighter
their glow lit by your heart
showing me the way to you
I rejoice as when I depart
the path comes into view
back-lit all the way by stars
moonbeams guide me
music plays from sitars
drifting down in time
with my heartbeats
gently I float upwards
never again to be apart
sip wine in heaven's vineyards
