When My World Has Fallen Poem by Jody Britoe

When my world has fallen

Remember the sound that travelled every ear
The warm embrace of every winter’s year
Every dropp that fell from the eyes of vision
And every thought that manifested in the mind of illusion

When my world has fallen...Remember this...

I was not ignorant to the world of stupidity
I was subtle to success, to embark on opportunity
So many think that my life is a breeze
But it a high tide zone, that I handle with ease

I live life high, I’m above all feet
Bury me in the sky, so the world can see

A soldier at birth, to a general’s death
One last minute, one last breath
One last step, if it all I got left...

Let me...step to my girl and give her my best
Let me...hear mama's heart beat pump through her chest
Let me...for one last time, trade with my enemies
Love to hate, for this wish is within me
