When my time comes,
I will finally be free from the evil of this world.
I will be ready.
Take me to the Lord.

Please let me in,
Into the pearly white gates.
I want in,
To see the faces of my beloved.

I want to roam the golden paved streets,
Sing in harmony with the angels,
Live in the mansions.
I want to experience the foretold place.

Let me in the clouds,
The light mist of Bel Air.
Breathe in the fumes of holy,
And relax after the long, past life.

Do not deny me entrance,
I will not let this happen.
Gargoyles of stone,
Do not mock me.

Tilt head back,
Eye lids close,
Lay back. Please grant me my halo.
Welcome home.

Da dam la di da,
Ah ah ah,
Ohhhh, oooooo,
Mmmmmm.


Dreams do come true.

Hey there,

:iconprettyflour: here on behalf of :iconpoeticalcondition: with the critique you requested.  

On first read, I thought this might be a poem about someone welcoming death, but now that I have read it through, I think it's about someone who deeply craves peace. I'g glad my first impression was wrong, I find the subject of peace much more refreshing than death. 

Overall, I found your word choices to be simple and apt, the poem flows nicely and there is some serious emotion in your words.  Great work.
Thank you for sharing your words.
:)
