This Poem Before I Go Away Poem by Shalom Freedman

THIS POEM BEFORE I GO AWAY

This poem before I go away
How beautiful life has been
How deep in feeling
How great in love
Oh if I could only live more and more
Even Regret has its meaning
Even Sadness its song
Even Loneliness its life charm
Even just breathing
Being alive
This poem before I go away
When I am begging You to let me stay
And You are asking why
With a billion dreams in the sky
It should be I and only I
Who will never need to die-
This poem before I go away
How beautiful life has been-
