I will not forget you.....

I will not forget you
  By
Michael Stamper

I ascend upward of spiral staircase of cloudy abyss

Trying to bring back the person who I once loved but now miss

Coming up here seems like a dream that was yet to come true

But my sorrow will drown when I can seem to locate you

Step by step, as far as I go

Why did you die

I shall not know.

But my heart is still filled with anguish and torment

But your soul gives me motivation on this wild ascent

Finally my journey concludes

As I glare upon the pearly gates that lighten my mood.


I ask the gate keeper where do you dwell

I miss this person dearly and never got a farewell

The man gave a sharp grin

as the musty mist began to settle in

Which purges my heart from those dastardly sins.

However when your faces tiny fragments begin to disperse

This isn't paradise or bliss

This is something much worse


Soon my surrounding mimic your actions and begin to fade.

And now ceases this ridiculous charade

Now I am awake resting in my bed

Nothing but an illusion all in my head.

The only part of that vision that remains correct

Was your departure from this world leaving nothing but a dramatic effect.


But still seeing you one last time is all I ask

However taking you for granted doesn't stoke anything but my unfortunate chance.

Those days drag on since the day you died

And now your gone and only God knows why.

Any suggestions?

    Another great piece. You really know how to put things in a way that it tugs with the heart strings. I know how it feels. My brother died, and I never got to say goodbye. for a while they appear in your dream, then gradually they start to disappear. The problem is do you really want that to go away? Horrible as it may seem, it's been ages since he's appear in one of my dreams, and now I'm starting to forget his face, and how he was before his death. This was beautiful.

    I can feel that pain in this poem. I truly know how it is too lose someone close to the heart. Just remember that they are still with you and they are watching everything you do. So, never frown or cry just smile and do what makes you feel good.
