Today, death paid me visit.It wore a white fluffy apparel
It took me in its embrace
It said nothing.
Just silence.
I was grateful for the silence
As I laid on its breast
Rocked forth and back
My tears stained the fluffers
Silent sobs.
"How are you" it asked finally.
Silence.
"I understand" it says.
The warmth in its eyes told a different tale
Of warmth and love and comfort.
Today, Death sat with me.
Like the estranged lover of a married man
The one with whom he finds peace
We shared the silence
Whilst I bore my soul!
When I told it I'd rather be with it,
It pat my back. How I wanted to be held longer.
It smiled. It understood!
It squeezed my hands for a while
And what I felt was peace!
Today, Death shared my space.
It shared my silence
Made me say nothing
Today, I bore my soul to death.
"I understand" it kept saying.
Only when I sat alone in my room
Sobbing. The loneliness overwhelming.
After we waved goodbye and I felt it left.
That it pulled my door knob
And whispered thus.
"I didn't forsake you tired boy."
"You shouldn't put up with a lot tired boy"
"And this you should always remember"
"You can always find your way home"
It said!
TODAY!
Chines Zoe!
