Don't Cry For Me Poem by Rodney K Davis

I'VE TRAVELED MY JOURNEY,
ENDED MY SORROW.
RISING WITH THE SUN LIKE YOU,
STARTING A NEW TOMMOROW.
I KNOW YOUR HEART ACHES
LISTEN TO MY VOICE
IT IS ALL APART OF LIFE, WHAT IS WRITTEN
WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE
SO DON'T CRY FOR ME,
NOR SHALL YOU WEEP.
IT'S ONLY MY BODY, NOT MY SOUL.
THAT'S LAID DOWN TO SLEEP
I SEE YOUR TEARS.
FEEL YOUR HEART BREAK.
UNDERSTAND THAT I AM WITH YOU,
WATCHING EVERY STEP THAT YOU TAKE.
REMEMBER AS CHILD, TO YOU I WOULD SING.
THOSE THOUGHTS AND TREASURESARE NOW
WIND BENEATH YOUR WINGS.
SO... WIPE AWAY YOUR TEARS.
TO YOU I WILL NOT LIE.
THAT DAY IS SET FOR ALL OF US,
FROM THE FIRST SLAP AND CRY.
PLEASE DON'T HAVE ANY REGRETS,
AS I ASK GOD FOR ONE LAST FAVOR.
SAVE THAT SPOT BESIDE ME BECAUSE,
I WANT YOU TO BE MY NEIGHBOR.
UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN, CELEBRATE MY LIFE.
I WANT THIS TO BE A
JOYOUS OCCASSION, SO PLEASE....
DON'T CRY FOR ME! ! !
