Bye, But You Still Live On In Me

You left too soon
To live by the moon
To dine with the sun
And smile with the morn
Am left now, with double heart
I know you left by me, your heart
I have now, double feelings
I have now, double emotions
Two voices, to enhance my screaming
And I'll accept that, and take care of it with caution
I will get angry twice as normal
Smile twice as normal
Love with such strength which doesn't exist in the world
Care so much, even if my heart can't afford
You'll live on in me
Forever am you, and you are me
I will answer to your name, I'll glee-
As you do glee, walk like you walk
Talk like you talk
smile like you do smile
live by your style
Because you are me, and am you

tell me, sage, is it worse to have two hearts, or only half of one? I've never read a poem in which someone has taken the heart of another, I assume through death? If so, it's even more beautiful than at first glance. Very nice.

That's a lovely reply, and one I agree with completely ;)

having half heart is worse, the emotions will be pieces and not piece...but two heart, is lovely especially when the two hearts are exactly one before the departure of the other...two heart's a great strength
