MELFA THE POET

WHEN I DIE

When I die

Don’t sob or shriek 

for once in a lifetime 

permanent sleep seeks

 

When mystic morning divorces me 

In my next world 

I’ll love and miss you 

Embrace your humility, unfurled 

 

when I depart 

find solace in your heart 

for you’ll forever be 

a cherished part of me ….
