I transcend from your linage
and I excel your genes
and was blessed to share your sun
and the air that you breathed
Never anticipating that you would leave
forsaking me to remain
and emotionally bleed
Reality continues on without cease
Your memories are repeated
within my dreams
Wishing I could’ve understood your convictions
While Wishing for once
I could grasp your attention
Fruit of your tree and glorification
Traits that exceed
onto following generations
had to go and take your soul
to now abide
within wonders untold
Glory and love graced thee thy wings
While leaving in sorrow
this wretch in me
Though your greats and adversities remain real
Your abrupt departing
still remains surreal
Not heeding the warnings that you fed me
And although afraid,
I know u were ready
Cut short from the chance to prove to you
How much I cared
and was proud of you
I wish I was smarter with my time
I wish you knew how often
you crossed my mind
My sorrow restarts when each day renews
For I cannot deny
how much I loved you
Despite the mental steel wall that I built
Forever internally
I will live with that guilt
You will forever live as i live and breathe as i breathe
because I transcend from your lineage
and excel your genes
I CAN FEEL YOUR LOVE THROUGH
I CAN FEEL YOUR LOVE THROUGH YOUR WORDS. GREAT WORK KEEP WRITING
