Poem Title:
Poem
When I am nothing, a no one, when nobody remembers my name - will you give me a purpose to remain? When I can no longer run, will you carry me over the line? Will you teach me how to tread slowly, upon paths I'm yet to discover, will you bring me home? In times of rage and rejection, will you show me patience, love me without blame? Will you understand me - comprehend the metaphors of my angst? When I am lost in the wilderness, will you guide me to be found? When all doors are closed, will you provide me with a key, so I can open yours? In days of darkness, when selfish stars hide behind black hues, when I'm lonely like the moon, will you place my head upon your chest, so I can feel the glow of your heart? When I'm helpless in the trauma of the storm, in times of insanity and fear, will you keep me warm? Shelter my inner child, from those who could harm? When tears finally flow, when my lips are parched, will you kiss me softly, heal me with breaths of empathy? In times of infliction, when there is no remedy for my cure, will you hold my hand, will you ease my pain - soothe me until the end? When I crumble like a summer orchid, will you lay strong foundations? Will you disguise my imperfections, lie to me about my perfections? When I'm too fatigued to flower, will you become a pillow upon my flowerbed? When my garden is no longer evergreen, will you sow new seeds of hope. so my memories blossom forever? When there are no words Will you cherish my silence? When I can no longer walk, will you lay by my side? When all lyrics have been written, when the last poem has been sung, will you become my poetry - will you reflect on my legacy? When my soul is returning to its sender, will you be my last
