Weep not for my Ashes

by Dorian Black

When I die don't weep for ashes.
I'm not there; I'm not in your urn.
I am the wind 'round your autumn face,
the ocean's current amongst your waist.
A drop of rain to hide your tears,
a warm safe blanket for your fears.
Don't think of times where I'll be naught,
Nor dream of me in rendition fought.
When I die don't weep for ashes.
I'm not there; I'm not in your urn.
My soul escaped; It did not burn.

Beautiful, message-filled, and intense. The arrangement of your words is absolutely spectactular.

Your poetry has an antique feel. Everyone I read could easily have been written by a clever mind a hundred years ago.
