The Day I Die
Is the Day you cry
Don't scream for me
I've gone up high
My limbs don't work
But don't you SIGH!
Don't make a fuss
We all die - no lie
If someone wails
Stop them and try
Just pray for me
I've said,'Good- bye'
Death bath looks good,
Than life so dry
Don't blame my GOD,
And look in my eye
I'm going back to HIM
I'll say him,'hi'
Read the verse for me
And send up to sky
My people! don't cry
At least I can fly
I returned back to him
The GOD who's my
Author's note;
I wrote it with true heavy heart while I returned from a funeral.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.

I'm so sorry for your loss, whoever it was. So much love. Both poems for this title you've made are beautiful, and sad, but healing. Love you. I hope you're doing okay.
You are so creative and talented! This is beautiful!
This poem beautifully captures the peace and acceptance of death. The calm reassurance to loved ones and the faith in returning to God are both comforting and powerful. A graceful and moving reflection on life’s final journey.
Wow watch a lovely poem Yes we live today and tomorrow we r gone..life is short though but we all r visitors upon earth
"Oh! These lines truly made me cry. 😢 It feels as if the scene has come alive before my eyes. Your words are incredibly impactful. However, I have never attended a funeral in my entire life.
