Heal Me Slowly

Heal me slowly, O death, heal me slowly Leave me the day's dying light Come for me gently in the night Heal me slowly, O death, heal me slowly Leave me a little while my pain Let me watch a sun set again Heal me slowly, O death, heal me slowly The scent of new-born summer lingers Mingles with winter's cold fish fingers Heal me slowly, O death, heal me slowly Let me taste one more mango Leave me to dance another tango Heal me slowly, O death, heal me slowly Come for me gently in the night Leave me the day's dying light Heal me slowly, O death, heal me slowly

Such a wonderful poem, I really enjoyed reading it, death is something we don t have our control over, it will come even before we realize it and that pain will be more than anything, but remember that this life is only a test, we need to pass it, we need to do good deeds and make God pleased, and once again, a really beautifully written poem
