Not Afraid To Die :(

by Amba   May 17, 2005


I have so much honor for you, you are so brave
You are now dyeing, as your skin turns a whiter shade
I sit by the hospital window, tears streaming down my eyes
You call me over to your bed and you say “it’s all right, I’m not afraid to die”

I break down in a world of misery
We had been together for more then two years
I think of all our love and intimacy
But it crumples as your time nears

The flowers i bought you now wilt in the sun
All the petals have fallen off, but one
I stare into your fading eyes, you stare into mine
Droplets of tears form in the corner of my eyes as you whisper “I’ll be fine”

I hold your cold hand, and grip it oh so tight
I wish that you could make it just one more night
And while you lay in the bed, i cry, “please don’t die”
And with your final breath you replied “ I love you and I’ll always be by your side”

I wrapped my arms around you, and i held you in my caress
I lay all night with my love, where god put him to rest.
I woke up the next morning, still laying by his side
Seeing your pale face, it just made me start to cry.

My body becomes cold as i start to shake
staring at you, again i start to deteriorate. .
. . just like the flowers i bought you, with just one petal
again i’m falling to pieces as the last petal falls

plz vote or comment the favor will be returned

    This is a very sad poem, and you manage to put your amotions into words in a very impressing way...

    Some grammar mistakes, but that doesn't really matter...

    It rhymes quite good, but the flow was a points ruined..

    But still...great poem...

    I dunno what it is, but there is something within it that makes me feel with the narrotor..

    keep it up
