Even In Death

A poem about a man who lost his mother, who died in his arms.

Once a woman from the dawned, darkened age

Who lived like a true lady and swallowed her rage

Knelt upon the foot of my bed

And planted a sweet kiss atop of my head

For she was once a child in this dawned, darkened age

When she was treated like a rogue animal inside a cage

But now a grown woman who took care of a child

Look down upon me and worriedly smiled

"For one day may we part, we will see another once again"

There's no use in arguing if you will not win

So instead of putting down one of my many theories,

I tried to make my serene mother feel much less weary

I pulled her head upon my chest

And there it lay now, and there it may rest

For the small sweet smile that lay on my mother's face

Laid there, even after she passed, and stayed there for days

Once a woman from the dawned, darkened age

Who now lays in her tomb piled high with sage

Looked upon the heavens above

And even in death, nourished me with her love

Wow, this is one of the most touching pieces i've read in a long, long time. It's like something they'd make us read in school, except we can understand it, i bet they will make kids read this in the future. Really good job.

"Spirit lead me where me where my trust is without borders, let me walk upon the waters, wherever you would call me. Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander, and my faith will be made stronger, in the prescence of my Savior." This poem was beautiful, and maybe I'm seeing things, but I think I'm seeing another poem inside a poem. As for the poem, simply amazing. No words can describe how great it is. As for the other poem I see inside of it, don't worry, somewhere in your mother's heart she probably loves you, she doesn't know how to show it, or it is buried very, very, very deep. And besides, you have your comrade, your friends on here, God, and me. "Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders, let me walk upon the waters, wherever you may take me. Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander, and my faith will be made stronger, in the prescence of my Savior."

PWAH, YOU'RE FINDING ALL OF THE MESSAGES. xD

[The StoryTeller]

The read requests? Yeah, it's kind of hard, because when I started yesterday I had 121. I'll read 10 a day and end up with 20 more the next day. But I got down to 115 and I'm still there so. XD I really liked this though.

[The StoryTeller]

And yes, the messages inside of the writing too. XD
