The Good-Bye (bereavement poem)

CATEGORY

life

Views: 466

Why  in  the  end,  does  this  grief  begin

Life  long  journey’s  destination….transcendence

Maybe  its  “I”  who  has  left,  forever  removed  out  in  space

No  stretch  of  imagination  will  lead  me  to  your  resting  place

So  I  cry,  although  I  knew  you  would   be  leaving  soon…..too  soon

Enough  of  you  lingers  within  me,  to  contend  with  for  now

Wishing  for  a reprieve  or  a  child’s  “do  over”,  continuation

Instead  I’m  left  with  an  empty  vessel,  that  still  possesses  you

I’m  covered  with  the  pain,  although  you  I assume  no  longer  suffer

Its  better  this  way,  I  prayed, now  selfishly  I  burn  with  dismay

Wanting  to  forget  our  first  day shared,  without  that  day,  there  is  no  life

So  I  can  only  hope  you  can  check  on  me  from  your  place  where  time  does  not  exist

If  you  can’t  I  suppose  I  will  know,  as  many  a  day  will  be  spent  thinking  of  you

I  fool  myself  into  thinking  and  believing  I  left  first and  somewhere  you  are  happy  I  did

Leaving  you  for  I  must  continue   to  live  my  life…..and  in  such  a  reality…I  don’t  feel cheated

For I’m  gone  from  you  and  not  the  other  way  around…..making  my  hurt  not  so  harsh

I  love  that  you  couldn’t  stay  with  me,  so  now  I  can  trust  in  GOD’s  redeeming  power….

Extinguishing  and  Distinguishing   our  eternal  with  the  Love  and  Memories  of  the  GOOD-BYE!

 

 

RIP - Young Shotta "KirK'......gone way too soon  youngblood.......ONE

Man. That was powerful, bro. Volumes of endearment to those who we love who we are gone away from....Not the other way around. Thanks for posting this, 2b2b2.

Loss changes the properties of memories from fleeting to indelible so we may carry them with us evermore. Some spill alcohol you spill verse;both are meant to honor. Well done my Vibe Brotha
