Ashes to ashes
dust to dust
heart to heart
we will never
be apart.
Ashes to ashes
dust to dust
soul to soul
we will always
be equal.
You said that
you would be
my ashes.
You said that
you would be
my dust.
You said that
you would be
my heart.
You said that
you would be
my soul.
You said that
we would never
depart each others arms.
Now I am crying
Asshes to ashes
dust to dust
heat to heart
soul to soul
now we will depart.

The beginning:
"Ashes to ashes
dust to dust
heart to heart
we will never
be apart.
Ashes to ashes
dust to dust
soul to soul
we will always
be equal."
and the ending:
"Asshes to ashes <<< *** spelling Ashes... LOL
dust to dust
heat to heart
soul to soul
now we will depart"
is poetically beautifully said ~ it really brings a tear to the eye ~ of losing someone you love ~
The middle might want to try to keep the same meter and format as the beginning and the end ~ or completely change it all together ~
Thanks so much for entering the "Set the bar" contest ~ I do appreciate you sharing your work with me ~ Best of luck to you!

The poem has its merits and I like the repetitive structure. It gives a chant like quality and it definitely builds emotion and yes I can feel the sadness, but well I don't feel the lust. It would seem that the poem is a bit off theme for me.
~DD~ -
This is reeally good but kinda sad.it's got a good choice of words and phrases!good luck in the contest!
