One Last Goodbye Poem by douglas lewis

One Last Goodbye

Rating: 4.0


You and I together.
I, in quiet repose
And you, in mourning lap.
You can not hear me
But you can face.
I am waned
But not quite wizened,
You can kiss me if you like.
You can not hear me
But you can hold me.
I am cold
But not quite chilled,
You can warm me
If you like.
You can not hear me
But you can love me.
I am waiting
But not quite wakened,
With a forever faithful heart.
You can say goodbye now,
If you like.

Holy wow. The power of the back and forth between the living and the dead is wrenching. Absolutely beyond comprehension. This is emotional devastation threaded through the needle of perfect calm. I am in awe. As I am torn to shreds.
