Weep not for my Ashes by Dorian BlackWhen 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. 12/22/2011 Posted on 12/22/2011 Copyright © 2025 Dorian Black

Posted by Jody Pratt on 01/15/12 at 09:10 PM Your poetry has an antique feel. Everyone I read could easily have been written by a clever mind a hundred years ago. |
