When Im Gone Poem by Abdullah Salaam

When the dreams we held so close
To our hearts is gone
In a flicker of a second they are torn
It could even be in the early morn

When my breath is still
And mourning tears will spill
I wonder how you’ll cope
If your heart will be restored with hope

I promise never to leave you
In your heart I’ll always be with you
You’ll feel my breadth in the breeze
And hear me whisper like the trees

I’ll guide you from up above
Like a beautiful white dove
I’ll cry with you when tears fall
And I’ll listen when you call

Don’t mourn for too long
Or go from right to wrong
Don’t let happiness pass you by
For that would make me cry

The memories will be close to me
Our love will last eternally
When you seem so lost
God will melt the frost

Strength will overcome the storm
And new dreams will begin to form
I’ll forever love you so
And hope you’ll find love once more

I’ll be your Guardian Angel
Catching you each time you fell
Please don’t cry for me anymore
I’ll be waiting behind heavens door


in memory of someone i never knew but i wish i knew
