Beside Me

Will you stand beside me
As I pass into the void, the light
Into an unknown, where fear may strike me
Into the unknown, where I may take flight

As I take my last breath
And my eyes flutter
Will you stand beside me
Holding my hand, not crying

For, my love, to watch your eyes
Well up with tears, overflowing
As I pass into the realm alone
May be the worst parting gift I could ever receive

  1. Wow, this is quite deep and yet calming. It's really beautiful. I did have the feeling of breathing calmly on a smooth winter morning well aware of the devastating truth to which one has given up and accepted. I did feel like I must let go as though it is how it must be.

    You're really good!! Thank you.
