Drifting Away Poem by me poet yeps poet

The more I love
the more you drift away
why do you do it
in such a way

Life is meant to enjoy
I pray
just follow my pathway

As you don't love to do
what I want you to
then blame me not
for the shallow river
where I leave you

knowing not
that you can't swim
use your imagery
and remember
that life can be lonely
after me
who will salvage you

and

upon whose shoulder will you rest
have you ever thought of it

I am still holding on
but for how long
who can that forecast
when by physical body
to flames will be cast

soon I will be an envelope
worth of ashes
just to be strewn about
the distant forest

I don't want to be buried.
