My Dad Used To Say Poem by Keith Anastase KAMOSSO

“…If you see me getting smaller and smaller, don’t panic. It is better to breathe rather than to grieve. And love is brighter and much more than fame. Death is one way out of the confusion and misery but not an easy road to walk through. Sometimes, it can be harder than swallowing poison. So, if you see me leaving, don’t worry and don’t be in any hurry, people get the right to disappear…”

“…If you see me disappearing, maybe it is for the good reason. Don’t judge me or juggle in the pain of my disappearance. Maybe I am going to a better place. Maybe my disappearance will help to learn how to value your life and make each and every move carefully. Maybe now I am here but tomorrow I won’t…”

“…The disappearance is not the end but just the beginning of something bigger. The rest of your life is a long time but the past is gone and there is nothing you can do to bring it back but there what you can do to change the future and make it more interesting...” My father always used to say.
