From The Underside of Our Great Love

From The Underside of Our Great Love

Ā 

From the underside of our great love
darling, please remember this
there's no need to leave me flowers
or any other gifts
I'll sleep my death in peace, I will
I want to tell you fair
that my life that’s now been lived
I always lived with flair
need not swell those tears of grief
and wet the ground for I
it’s me, it’s I under this tree
and here forever, I do lye
fresh grass will grow in time my dear
for now, I share each season rich
when summer comes I’ll feel her warmth
I’ll enjoy every single bitĀ Ā Ā Ā 
when autumn leaves do fall on me
green, orange, pink and redĀ 
they’ll keep me warm and cozy
on my autumn covered bed
need not swell those tears of grief
go live your life, stand proud
and know, that I am always here
we're forever boundĀ 
and although, I know my time stands still
no bells, no bells are left to chimeĀ 
and fates last breath has passed
you were here beside me one last timeĀ Ā 
you held my hand with love, with will
rest assured my darling dear
I promise now to watch over you
as yours is with you still.

To have had and lost, impermanence?
I feel it that you seem to see me
More than I can you. I'm more of a monk.
I could never know, but that it seems
To be more the natural law of life,
To loss, than to possess forever.

That's beautiful Rory, I'm speaking from my death bed six foot under  to my beloved in this one. 🌹 I always look from the living view, now I'm trying it from beyond, enjoy the ride my friend. 🤣

My first love liked the word Beloved.
I Wonder did she ever find him.
No doubt something close.
