the ones

before I leave

there are things
that I want to say
just things

…good things

I find

you're not there
so I whisper
and I hope you can hear me

there is good
around me
mother, father,
can you hear me?
I feel the beauty
within me
...but without me
my sister, brother, my friends
I didn't mean to end up like this

there are things...

and I'm trying hard
to never forget
I am trying
to go ahead

... the ones who love
the ones who care
are the ones I've known
.. the ones who think

of me

and there are things
that I just don't see

this place
I will leave

…by then maybe
I’ll ‘ve seen some good
that might also resemble me

…like when we sleep
I wish I could forever
see you sleep
and leave

… while I sleep

I’m trying hard
I hope you believe me
my mind’s clear
and I’m here
the world hurts
these are wrong tears
for the cries…

I still don’t hear

there are days
I don’t even whisper

these are the things
I fear


but the ones I love…

oh God

You’re here

    ' You say you caught a glimpse
    Of a man with reverence
    And if you could ever meet
    Could you please report to me?
    And tell me, what did he say
    To change your day
    And keep the fear at bay?
    If you did, you better learn to pray '

    oh God

    You’re here

    I read this for the third time, seeing if I had yet made up my mind to comment.

    The one I love isn't here and in her place are half ass shoulders to cry on, if I was to cry on a shoulder.
    But that is rare.
    This poem has forced me to be conscious and decide who I would be glad to have "here". No one comes to mind ... wow ... That's hilarious ... This is going to be a mind twister for a little bit of the upcoming future

    sounds like a light feeling... though lightness too can get heavy... I recently read a book called "unbearable lightness of being" ... and that says it well...

    the one you love isn't there... I know there's nothing light about that...I think
