DEATH AT BAY

DEATH AT BAY

Something bigger than you and me...

I tried to save you, you rejected everything I was trying to do...

You called me a fool said I didn't know what I was saying...

I tried to keep death at bay...

You claim you know God's way...

You stood up and preached...

I asked are you really sure about this? 

You have seen how people stop my tears...

Tears I should cry...

Heartbreak I should feel...

You make me look cold...

You make me look like I just don't care...

When in your heart you knew I really did...

Death is coming quicker than you thought...

You thought you hurt me by things you said...

Are you sure?

I asked one final time...

I tried to keep death at bay...

But, my friend you called it in...

Hugs...

Hello Tony...

Very true...

I have seen proof of things that could have been changed...

It was up to the person to receive more time....

Some people didn't have to see death when they did and though it may seem I am speaking of suicide I'm not...

They could have simply made a different choice but, they wanted to prove me wrong and them right...

They didn't want to be half right they wouldn't accept being part wrong either...

It's difficult to explain personal experiences, but, we can learn a lot from them...

Some people know what I'm saying and some haven't been shown yet...

Thank you for your comment and support my friend! 

Hugz and Smiles! 

Love and Rockets!

" We all have the same beginning (birth),  and we all have the same ending ( death)  " Mitch Albom, 

I think the difference is how we live in between!! 

How we prepare D DAY!! 

Thanks for sharing 

Hugs and kisses

Hello Leah...

Prepare for D day?

By telling family and friends you love them other than that perhaps a definite choice is made...

I don't know how anyone could prepare for such time...

How we live is definitely important...

Some people say Heaven and Hell doesn't exist...

If that is true then why do some experience God's presence and blessings and others don't here on earth?

I know people in both places and those who have gone to hell, I never said I would see them again...

I just realized that...

WOW!

Thank you for your comment and support!

My Dear Sweet Sparrowsong,

.

She tried to keep their death at bay

Such tender words to them she'd say

But too late their hearts were set in stone

Her reward was spoken, "Just leave me alone"

.

She cared so very much for them

That she said, "I refuse now to haw and hem"

But again they eschewed her words of love

And now she sends kisses to them above

.

Hugs, Peace and Love,

Larry xxx
