Marco Poem by Elizabeth Kiehn
Marco
With a heavy heart, I hung up the phone
Death's taken our cousin, so precious so young
So many years since I last saw your face
Heard your kind voice, felt your embrace
I push back my tears, feeling the heartbreak of guilt
For letting time pass, knowing time now stands still
My day goes on, becoming harder to bare
My heart filling with cries of our families despair
Trying to find peace, I close my eyes
Praying to God, about your demise
Death is natural, why do I weep?
Life blatantly shows us our soul we can't keep
The following day I pray once again
Asking for help, seeking emends
The answer was beautiful, simple, and sweet
God made a promise, and a promise he keeps
Death is not the end, our loved ones aren't lost
They're just deeply sleeping, awaiting God's call
Marco, this promise is for people like you
Kind hearted, caring, loving and true
So, Peace cuz, sleep sweet, sleep tight
For now I'll just wish you a peaceful Goodnight
Praying once again playing the day is really very amazing with expression really. Interesting sharing...10
A sadly beautiful tribute & memorial for your cousin...Smooth and crisp structural movement as well as a polished rhyme scheme...And for the record, Elizabeth, I'm willing to bet the Ranch I'm hoping to have one day that Marco is not just in a very pleasant place right now, and I'm talking about a place where Marco will understand any misunderstandings that perhaps kept the two of you from expressing your true emotions for each other, and a place where he has the ability to see past those misgivings that always comes along with mortality & instead see this poem as proof and testament to how much you loved & cared for him...In fact, Elizabeth, I'dbet that same Ranch I'm counting on that Marco is smiling over you right this moment & sayin', Thanks for this & Peace with Love 2u MY Cuzin! ~FjR~
