- Death Came Like a Storm -

As an everlasting journey among philosophers we lived in our love dream world You had everything Insight and understanding For something big greater than humanity I needed you so badly Wind calm days Avoid the storm came to me The truth is somewhere The moment you died in my arms No one knows why But I know that death took you Like in stormy moments My scream was strangled Give me a quiet minute a minute that is not stormy My tears are wiped away The storm is calm ... I have learned Life is so fragile I see the future of hope Life without you Living in the hope that even were present with me I will never forget you Sometime in the future .... meet you again You are standing there at the gate Old wounds will heal with time Hope and life recurs With a kiss I say goodbye Sponsor:Nette Onclaud Contest Name:BRIEF, UNFORGETTABLE MOMENT Deadline 12/18/2013 12:00:00 AM 2nd place in contest :) 22.11.2013 A-L Andresen :)

Powerful and so much more as I live on without my wife who died in 09. The worst thing about death is it came for her first and I could not bar the door! But as you say Ann life goes on and living in the here and now can be a brand new day Best wishes always ; Michael.
