If I Died Now

Nothing would change if I died now I would still be by your side I may be gone, but I'm not going anywhere. Even though you cannot see me any longer, just know that I'll be there. At midnight when you are asleep, I will watch over you until the sun rises. Then, in the morning when you awake we will spend the day together, even though you are now alone. I would not be sad if I died now. Because, I would still have you near. Tears would flow at the thought of everything I can no longer do. I would never find my one true love, or be able to have children. We wouldn't get to travel like you always wanted to. But, I wouldn't let it depress me. I hope you will not let it ruin your life, either. I would want you to be happy, and celebrate our favorite holidays. It will be difficult without me around. But, I would miss the fun if you didn't celebrate. If I died now you wouldn't even know I was gone. I would do what ever I could to make you smile again. I will hold your hand, when you are afraid. And wipe away your tears, when you are sad. I will blow the dark clouds away so the sun can shine down on you. It would rain on the flowers, when you forget to water them. Because, I know how those bright blooms make you smile. I would wrap my arms around you on winter days, and keep you from the cold. I guess I would be your dark angel, your guardian. Always there to protect you and keep you from harm. I will love you no less than I ever did. If I died now.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Andrea. I think my family knows how I feel about them, even though I haven't expressed anything quite like this to them. My family knows that I write poetry, but they have not read any of it, yet. :)

Kelly,------ ~ Did you really think I'd leave without stopping by to say Good-bye. Never, Muwahahahaha! Why the word alone sounds -forever and difficult. LOL, I love this place and the poets. A couple of soup friends and I are taking a short vacation. REMEMBER! The Best Thing About Leaving is the "RETURN." I will leave in good faith, in hopes you don't forget me, and you are looking forward in having me visit you and your poems in the future. HAHA, I will bring a new me when I return. "I Can't wait to see you again:) If you ever want me to read a certain poem or you wish to say hi...

I don't like that word, either! But, I guess I have to say goodbye for now, Linda. Sometimes, we do need to take a break and get away every now and then. I am looking forward to your return, though! So, I will just say, see you later, PD! :)
