Leaving Me Poem by Lyn Paul

Leaving Me

Rating: 5.0


How on earth is time supposed to heal?
How can this... possibly be real?
You said you would never leave me, but look at what you've done
Now my days are night and I will never see the sun
What can I do to feel you are still with me?
Must I survive on our cherished memories?

This is where music must play a role
With all our favourite melodies I will try and fill a hole
But you must remember your strength and how fast life does go
Forget all the woes and just watch everything grow
Remember a special song'Let It Be'
Accepting that now you are truly free

A great philosophical poem is astutely and movingly delineated. It may be cited a line....You said you would never leave me, but look at what you've done... Thank you dear madam for sharing this blue poem with us.

i assume that you and your here refers to YOU..............as well as anyone in a similar situation of loss. i assume a loved one died in your life OR 'a loved one dying' is what the poem is about, even if it did not happen to you (personally) . forgetting woes? I DON't think so. HAVING woes evolve into something else, maybe. putting them out of your mind most of the time, i hope so. music is good, best not mixed with too many 'bad drugs'. OR too many 'good drugs'. bri ;)

Some statements do not really work! Knowing what one faces in life. Thanks for sharing.
