Time To Go

Missing image

 

 

 

All those weeks you sat with me

I knew you were there, you held my hand,

it felt as though I were in a dream

my consciousness would not expand.

 

I heard your voice as you whispered low,

the anguish written on your face,

the time had come to let me go

to seek, to find my resting place.

 

You trembled as you turned the switch

and cried as my heart ceased to beat,

your tears caressed my still warm cheeks,

you kissed my mouth, our love complete.

 

The time had come my sweetest love,

for my body to be laid to rest

in the earth, where all life springs from,

please, weep no more or be depressed.

 

I’ve been beside you everyday

my love for you will never cease,

I’ve kissed those tears from your gentle eyes

at last I will find my peace.

 

I’ve been very near as you’ve gone through life,

my angel powers watching over you,

my wings protecting you from harm,

I know you’ve found a love that’s new.

 

I watch you as you say your vows,

I can leave you, for now I know,

you’re happy darling with your life,

now at last it’s time to go.

    WOW!!!!!!!!! What a read this is! You did an awesome job on this one! I believe that even going on with our lives here, our loved ones that have gone on before us, will continue to walk with us, and help us through, even if we find another love to help us in the day to day of life here on earth.

    Best of luck in this contest.

    Deeply-moving piece

    I believe that we do live on. This is a very deeply-moving piece of writing here. Wonderful imagery and deep, sad emotions here.
