PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Introduction: At some point of our lives, someone close to us departs off to the next phase. We think of the good times and try not to think the bad; but sometimes it haunts us back to how we responded in a naive way for our juvenile wishes. And sometimes we see them in our dreams at the utmost optimism and glory. But the fact that we get to realize what we did back then may have cherished and broken their souls in some ways, we always wonder if we could alter the deeds that wounded their affection in our times of immaturity...And pray that we get a second chance to do so for our next life. *the first two lines have some inspiration from another piece*.

Even if our hearts were as strong as a storm, we'd still feel a little bit sad
Knowing that we've lost our grandfather, our friend, our dad.
For so many years, we've felt their presence
In so many ways, we've felt complete,
But truly, even if we deny - We sometimes skip a heartbeat.

Our lives are nothing but their memories and their art,
Orbiting us each day, reminding us of who we are
Where we stand and to whom we belong,
We pray and cry up oceans for them night after night
Praying to be together just one more time, in the worlds of light.

But yes you are so fortunate, that you got to leave,
You've made it to the greater step, I pray for us to meet.
May your soul be blessed and may it shine brighter than the sun, Again and again
'I love you' it's not a lie, I may not have said it that much
But I hope you knew inside, even if I may have been unkind as such

Nothing is left for us to do but feel the tears stream down our eyes
For we, once in a while have broken their hearts with one or two lies,
Their face glows and vividly fades away from our dreams those nights
That's when we fall, fall down to our knees, pray for we could have changed
The ways we reacted back in those days.

Thoughts of those moments, thoughts of their sorrow smile
Now makes us realize how we never cared,
For that to overcome, we treasure the good times we've shared,
The times we've heard them say 'You've made me proud'
The times we've felt them lay their hands, oh so be crowned.

Their tender touch, their forgiveness
Their blessings for us and their happiness,
We pray to feel it all again
Bring it all again,
To the eternal life, after this time.
