..Sleep Eternally Poem by Gold Trybes

..Sleep Eternally



I'm still in total shock and disbelief.
My heart is broken and really sore
I'm still in utter disillusionment
How, why comes out so often from my words
Too many questions with little or no answers
Why would life be so cruel to steal a loved one

I'm here wishing this isn't true
That by some miracle, you will come to life
You fought hard in the face of tribulations
You waged a battle against death every day
You could have cheated on death again,
But you faulted and it had its last laugh

I don't know where to start, what to say
How can life be this cruel and callous
We shared so many things together
Looked out for each other every night
We were sources of comfort to each other
Shared our burdens and troubles together

Now, your there six feet below earth
Your clock suddenly stopped ticking
Leaving behind heavy mourners
who knew you, your good works
who thought life would always go on with you
But how sad, death decided to take you away

Pat, although your gone to rest
will always cherish all that we shared
All the times we sat hours on end
Gisting about nothing in particular
But just been there to while away time
and be comfort to each other

Your thoughts live on in the lives
Of all that knew you.Your life was worthy
And we're happy, though short but meaningful
I pray for the repose of your soul
And that you find peace and a place to rest
In the bosom of our Lord Jesus Christ

Adieu...Patricia
