Grieve not my love,

For me,

When I am gone

Life is never ours

To keep,

To cherish

Like love, it is

Given only

To be taken away

The ripples of my being,

The rumpled bed,

The half drunk water,

My aura,

Will spread wide,

And wider,

And vanish

Being,

And un-being are

Separated by

A moment,

A flash of darkness,

A heartbeat,

A snap of the fingers.

The food I loved,

The clothes I never wore,

The places we planned

To see

Together,

The “After this is over”

Dreams

Must go

Into oblivion.

You must live

Because of us,

If you too go,

My memory will die

With you

If it is a truly “far, far better place”

I will wait

For you,

Till eternity,

And beyond,

We have

Unfinished dreams

To live
