sonnet 71
3/12/13
Your words are echoing again in death
from many years ago I still listen
to your words coming from final breath
as your eyes lost their darkest bright glisten
and you said to me something to hold on
the greatest advice you could have given
what you told me relieved me of burden
three simple words that sent you to heaven
carry them out, I hope to bring you pride
to live to potential, to live as great
to plan it all out so my time I bide
for with angry people I shall not hate
you said to live without regrets
and you have won your final bet
