Death
When he died
I saw his soul last
Excited to continue its journey on
Leaving the body behind
Flying above the highest of mountains
Or deepest of seas
Leaving me behind sobbing
I wanted his heart to beat a minute longer
So that i could have pleaded to not leave me alone
The pain took better of me
I asked my soul could you move along
It said "no" ,you have to live longer
I questioned myself , Is this pain affecting me?
My heart was heavy with grief
I didn't want to see him dead
Alas!this is life's threat
