Literature Text

A little bit of me
And a little bit of you
All of a sudden
Out of the blue

Out of the blue
And into the sea
Splashing and laughing
Just you and me

Just you and me
Sitting in the sand
Building our castles
To which well command

To which well command
Something were proud of
This crazy little thing
That we call love

That we call love
It's just like fire
Never stops ascending
This lifelong spire

This lifelong spire
I'm now climbing alone
My feet are hurting
I'm becoming a drone

I'm becoming a drone
Unresponsive and stoic
Step by step
What we had was heroic

What we had was heroic
That thing, you and I
Even though I'm still climbing
I'm beginning to die

Beginning to die
The fire was snuffed
I'm shivering and numb
My shoes are scuffed

My shoes are scuffed
And my heart is grazed
And with that,
I stare into your final gaze

I stare into your final gaze
That will never move again
I squeeze your hand
Over and over again

Over and over again
I trip and stumble
I try to smile
But begin to mumble

I begin to mumble
My lip begins to quiver
I open my mouth
And start to shiver

Start to shiver
Visiting your grave
white and yellow tulips
I couldn't be saved

I couldn't be saved
I say adieu
All I can say
Is I need you

I need you
Blackness surrounds
And I wipe away
The tears I've drowned

The tears I've drowned
Has become such a chore
And fall one last time,
And I walk no more.
Has someone you were very close to ever die?

How did you handle it?

i love this poem it really makes you think.

and yes my grandpa died a year back and we were pretty close, as close as you can be when your over seas. But i always regret not calling him enough, but in the end, its okay.

im sorry for your loss.
