i want too die a simple death;
still i can not but tell..
battle field or hospital...
and when again i look..
so very deep
within your eyes..
it could be that it's just that....
i will only die again...
But even as you labor..
and i labor U.S. as one...
as once we did..
so long ago...
i know that in my illness..
i have thus become..
to one fatter and to some...
i have become...
low not greater in tumescence..
and you know it..
always and..
how it comes..
with age and thus..
and do we reminisce of this..
and how you...
have changed..
grey that bandage..
and with each gentle squeeze...
and as you watch me...
now so yellow, white...
i jerk
and jerk...
and i convulse again...
and i am so very still...
and you squeezed...
untill you...
were absolutely sure...
that i, remained still...
and at rest and i am and..
i dont want too die like this...
and would you...
allow it too be...
if it were you...held off defiant...
while your hands...
did other things as well..and..
each one brings me back..
from the edge...
each time...
too face my fate alone..
and you know with...
each suprised look..
that shoots..
so high and wide...
across your face..
and with each bright sun...
drawn out warm...
briefly..so briefly...
and that long stream....
as it finaly squirts...
and why it grows...
so much harder...
as you watch..
whats...
left of my life...
as it runs...
out between your fingers..
and it rushes...
towards the center...
and you hold on..
and on..
untill...that...
bright light..
and finaly when it dawns...
on her..
just what it is I have become...
i love the poem. it made me feel everything... it left an empty hole in my heart after i read it... hope this wont happen to you... or anybody...nobody deserves to loose their loved one... with lots of love, haidee
I Adore this poem everyone wants to die a simple death lol fatter with age does this mean your chubby?
I'll give ***** five stars and let others read and arrive at their own conclusions (or not) . bri : )
(cont.) Now your grammar is maybe better than MINE in 2023! I think there is a lot of and maybe tenderness in this, even though my comprehension may be incomplete.
Now I will read this for the 2nd time today. A clue as to when you wrote this is your less-than-perfect grammar (includes spelling; I think you 'want' 'to', not 'too', in your title.
(cont.) ...it is clearly marked as from 2009 which is before I 'knew' you. I think you were then known as 'Is It Poetry', but I'm not sure.
Well, I see below that I've visited this poem more than once, the last time six months ago. In one comment I was not clear about when I thought you wrote this peom, BUT...(cont.)
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.

I too like that great ambition! Well done Comrade!
