Rest in peace

illia

Death is but a shadow 

Of a love left behind 

Haunting beats of souls 

Dancing around in time 

Reflecting in the waters 

Where lights of love shine through 

Reaching out to me 

Reaching out for you 

Grief is costly 

Life is blind 

Dreams are free 

Not hard to find 

Haunted souls

Dancing free

Shining bright 

For you and me.

    Goodbyes are always tough, but your lines make a soothing reading. I'm sure they'll be appreciated.

  • illia

    Much appreciated. My words are my way of expressing the way life is, every part of life including the inevitable, death is beautiful chapter that needs beautiful words to discribe the different emotions it creates when we are touched by it,

  • L. B. Mek

    wonderfully conceptualised
    and then written, so well
    if someone
    wanted to base their philosophy
    on life, based on these words
    I wouldn't be surprised
    clearly, your poetic Genius
    swims, at that deep end
    of yearning, for existence's
    meaning...
    thanks for sharing, dear poet
