    The Day I Die

    Blackened skies
    Bloodshot eyes
    We are all in mourning
    On the day I die.
    The end of the young life
    That never really began.
    The end of my body
    As my ashes join the sand.
    My words could no longer make it safe
    They could no longer make a change.
    To me that was much worse
    Much more deranged.
    With my specter released
    I watch everyone else
    As they mourn for me, the deceased
    The day I die
    Is one for the ages
    As emotions that were built up
    Are released from their cages.
    To become one with the dead...
    No one truly wants that
    To figure out my last words said
    They want no lies, all facts
    The day I die
    Is a sad day indeed
    But everyone to know my words
    and heed this creed
    Beware of life
    And the pain it brings
    Take all that emotion
    release it and sing
    Sing that song
    Until you have nothing left
    Sing that song
    So you celebrate life
    And mourn not the dead.

    you are very talented

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
