Rip Me

No longer myself Definitions Do change over time I did not know Who I was Then Now I do With the sadness that comes When you learn of the death Of an old friend ***

RIP Me, evokes strong emotion! The line arrangement is lovely. Your words remind me of old friends of mine who have passed away and how I never had a chance to say, good-bye.

Thank you J.R. I do seem to have touched a chord with this one; everybody knows, or will know that feeling. I am moved by the response. xomo

I lost a good friend years ago. And I did feel part of me left the planet. A touching poem Panagiota

Hauntingly true and touching. And perhaps you have hit on one of the prime reasons for death, i.e., that it is for the living! :) gw
