Better Place

A Poem by Kenneth Murray

Poem about my ex that died.....still missing u

While i'm sitting here
Typing down these rhymes
I start thinking
About all of the times
Of when we laughed
When we played
When you left
When you stayed
When we smiled
When we cried
When we were honest
When we lied
Through the good and the bad
Through the happy and the sad
Through the thick and the thin
From beginning to the end
All the ups and the downs
I know how this sounds
A little crazy i'll confess
Now i'm burdened with stress
cuz you aren't here anymore
cuz now your knocking on heaven's door
I know you're high above the couds
I can feel you smiling down
But theres a smile on my face
Cuz I know in my heart that
You're in a better place
Where there's no more sorrow no more pain
And then the clouds let out the rain
There's a smile on my face
Cuz I know in my heart
You're In a better place
When I got the news
I was about to lose
My whole entire mind
When I remembered the times
Of when we pushed
When we shoved
When we loved
When we hugged
When we sung
When we danced
When we stared
When we glanced
Through the yells and the screams
Through our hearts and our dreams
Through the night and the day
I can honestly say
I feel dead inside
Wish you were still alive
So I could show you my love
But now you're looking from above
Even though I wont see you anymore
I know you're knocking on heavens door
I know you're high above the couds
I can feel you smiling down
But theres a smile on my face
Cuz I know in my heart that
You're in a better place
Where there's no more sorrow no more pain
And then the clouds let out the rain
There's a smile on my face
Cuz I know in my heart
You're In a better place

Very sad write, but written exceptionally well. Strange, but I posted a poem, "Too Late, Much Too Late," about an ex who died. She was a person I desperately needed in my life. but I failed to understand that at the time. Enjoyed "Better Place," I related.
