My Dear, Do Not Leave Me Now And Do Not Die Poem by Royston Allen

There's so much sadness and desperation
and Dark is the path I'm travelling on
The difficulties that I'm going through
Leave me helpless, wondering what to do

I have both known and seen much better days
And travelled along much easier ways
But now I walk this long road of sorrow
Facing today and dreading tomorrow

With tears of anguish and deep sighs of grief
Desperately hoping to find relief
“I love you my dear, ” I hug her and cry
“Please do not leave me now and do not die.”
