Final Memory

Final Memory

A Poem by Jack...

 

 

 

 

 

When

death on darkened skies

through my window

flies

 

My

wish in pleading sighs

is that before my

eyes

 

Your

face is what I see

of this last breath I

breathe

 

So

nothing else shall be

my final

memory

Such potent emotion in this beautiful write, Jack! To love someone that much, to know you only want that person to be with you till you breathe your last breath, is to truly live. Just beautiful. Lydi**

This one holds immense impact in so few words Jack, you really hit it out of the ballpark, so sad, yet somehow tender.

Thanks so much Frieda. I appreciate your kind words to me.
Normally I hate poems but I liked this one. It was short but I believe you made your point well. I like the emotion behind it and the final moments and what some of those thoughts might be. Good.
