Life and Death


Darling don’t be sad,
for the fact that I am gone,
for I still watch over you,
every night until the dawn.

The memories are precious,
the blessed moments that we shared,
be grateful for what we had,
knowing that true love has cared.

Life has no rules,
when it comes to life and death,
darling you are still the living,
do not waste another breath.

Know that I am with you,
like the stars up in the sky,
wear that pretty smile on your face,
please don’t waste away and cry.

    Beautiful, yet sad...

    The poem is very gentle, peaceful, heart-and-soul-felt; lovingly portraying the precious memories and promises of what once was true love, while comforting the one suffering in their loss... Very nice flow, full of emotiion. The link I clicked on was a broken link though. "Life and Death" is a great, romantic piece, it shoud do well in the contest. Good luck!!! Peace, Cyn

    A delightful and sentimental piece...

    A delightful and sentimental piece; it's certainly difficult to lose a loved one; nicely written. --Joe
