PEARLY GATE

maybe my
HEART
wouldn't ache for
HIM
so, if only I knew
WHERE
the fuck he did
GO

JUST
to know where this
HEAVEN
is, how far
AWAY
just to know he is
SAFELY
asleep or at
PLAY

AND
if only, just 
ONCE
I could kiss him
GOODBYE
just to know
THAT
I'll see him again

THEN
maybe dear
GOD
I could happily
WAIT
believing in
YOU
and that pearl
PEARLY
gate, but I
CAN'T!!!!
