Love Knows No Boundaries

“Float Like A Butterfly, Sting Like A Bee” Muhammad Ali

Our bond was unbreakable

A tight unit, it was unshakeable

Even death can’t defeat the love that we shared

We both had our unique way to reveal how we cared

I’ll never be able to comprehend, nor begin to understand

The battle you fought so courageously, as a wounded man

To be the only man left standing, had to be some heavy weight

A stigma to try to overcome, yet addiction sealed your fate

Even the sting of death doesn’t have the final say

For Jesus poured out what we couldn’t, he paved the way

While it seems we are separate, it’s only for a bit

I’ve got you pushing behind me, I simply feel it

I get reminders every day, that you are at eternal peace

As I begin to let it go, my walk comes with greater ease

I can rest my head knowing that full well

My Lord and Savior protected you from a burning hell

Love wins every war, breaks down every wall

And for this very purpose, I can stand tall

Feeling the gentle breeze, I simply breath it in

My feet remain grounded, as creation starts to sing

Reminding me that we are all created from the same soil

We all work, play, and live, we all have turmoil

But as I sit and write, my heart beats like a drum

While the bee stings a bit, the butterly has just begun

For you gave me courage during our younger days, now it’s my turn to be brave

To fight my courageous battle, defending the weak, utilizing every channel and wave

Technology can be a gift or a curse

I utilize this channel writing down every verse

So that no man or woman be left behind, for when that trumpet sounds

We will be united as one one, by this earth no longer bound

Thank you for the gift of your life, for it surely mattered

Especially to me, it gives me great purpose for the battle

Lord give me the words to speak, or compassion when there are none

Help me to turn them over to you, for you are the only way, Jesus, God’s only son
