Above All Else - Arborist

I’ve been watching through this wall of glass,

Hoping that some day, your suffering would pass.

Last breath escapes.

Your bones collapse.

The soil’s embrace leads you to rest.

And all of the eternal memories saturate my being.

Above all else, the soul transcends the physical body.

I know you’re still here.

I know you’re still here.

Your presence resonates within us.

Your heart still beats inside my chest.

I’ve been waiting behind this wall of glass

For your figure to reappear.

Your image is buried somewhere in the past,

But I will not forget this.

I will surpass.

I can relax and wipe the sweat from my brow.

You’re in God’s hands now.
