DEATH WILL NOT STOP ME SEEING YOU

A Poem by imissyou

my wife is dying, i am uncontrollably sad. she will haunt me until i join her.

DEATH WILL NOT STOP ME SEEING YOU

Promise that you will haunt me.
Promise that you will appear at night and wake me.
Will you... be you? Or will you be... a feeling?
I don’t understand how ghosts work you see.

I want to hear your voice forever.
I want to see your face forever.
I want to feel your touch forever.

Time is short and I am sorry.

I will be so very lonely.
So unbearably lonely
I am begging you, haunt me.
Keep me up at night until it is my turn
Haunt me, please.

Your death I am facing is staring at me, waiting.
