Message To One Up In Heaven (Poetry)
16th June 2015
It won’t be long, I think, until we meet again.
In truth, I’ll be quite glad to get rid of the pain
and life without you, well — it hasn’t been the same.
I’ve lost my energies and all desire for fame.
I miss the way things were — the world’s too different for me —
the future’s so unsure I’m dreaming constantly
of days gone by — good memories — I so wish life could be
as bright and full of hope, but years drift by so emptily...
So many of the ones I love have gone now — passed away
there’s no one left to talk to who recalls those far-off days
and I’m longing now for peace and quiet much more than
words can say
but it won’t be long and I’m not sad the Reaper’s on his way.
