Death my Only Escape Poem by Spanner Thegob

Death, my only escape
Please,
keep my legend bright,
never let it fade,
Take time to mourn,
to Grieve.
I ask you Speak my name,
Speak my truth,
let my words heal, not wound.
Know this,
Pain is life
Death is life.
We hide our secret sorrow, and softly
the Sun brushes against the clouds,
and as I disappear from memory,
whispers my name.
Death was my only escape from this life
I ask you Can the dead forgive us
For only They possess the luxury of an open mind
…………………..............................................................
All my life I tell myself I have been searching
But lately more and more it feels like i have been wandering.

for my friend Tom..
