My best friend
My best friend
My best friend
Hair so grey
Her face lined
Her eyes tired
A wisdom held secret, locked behind a lifetime of strife.
Sleep now my love
Sleep now my friend
Sleep now my protector
We shall meet again.
I will look for you at those pearly gates
Smile so wide
Hair so brown
Eyes so bright
Please wait for me.
I have a life to live, children to love.
Only then shall we meet again
My best friend
Hair so grey
Her face lined
Her eyes tired
A wisdom held secret, locked behind a lifetime of strife.
Sleep now my love
Sleep now my friend
Sleep now my protector
We shall meet again.
I will look for you at those pearly gates
Smile so wide
Hair so brown
Eyes so bright
Please wait for me.
I have a life to live, children to love.
Only then shall we meet again

Great emotion. I too am still learning all the little things but what I heard was someone who cares. We all deal with things. Poetry has helped me with so much and I think it will do the same for you.

Thank you. Sometimes your mind is so full you just have to let it out. Very cathartic.
