• Rest in Peace
• By Leah Moreland'

_______________________________

Ripped into pieces and lying on the floor.
Oh, please Oh, please, I don't want it anymore.
Tired and weak, I can't stand on my feet.
When will this heart, beat it's last beat?

( The poem begins with a scattered imaginary of human weakness and torture.)

Something screaming wants to come out.
What will happen if I let it about?
I don't care, I don't care.
That alone, awakens my fear.

( The soul of the painful is adamant in its fears of life )

All that I believed, is now in the dark.
So go ahead ole world, sneer off a remark.
For I haven't much time.
I am losing this mind.

( The poem attributes fear, despair and agony )

I'll end this sick life.
For in death, there will be, no more strife.

Smile pretty girl.
You are now a rare pearl.

( The negative thoughts takes the upper hand in the verse, but on conclusion, the Poetess is asking to smile away the agonies and despairs in life. Excellent verse, Congratulations to  Poetess Leah Moreland )

"Rest in peace" (in Latin Requiescat in pace ) is a short  Epitaph or  an idiomatic expression to wish an eternal rest and peace to someone who has died. The expression typically appears on tombstones, often abbreviated as R.I.P ( Also sarcastically said by many other as Rust in Piece ) This means  to lie dead peacefully for eternity. (A solemn entreaty used in funeral prayers, eulogies, etc.) We prayed that the deceased would rest in peace. The phrase or initialism is commonly found on the grave of Catholics, as it is derived from the burial service of the Catholic Church. A similar phrase is found in the book of Isaiah which is as below:

" The will come in peace, and they will rest in their beds, he who goes straightforward " This verse has been found inscribed in Hebrew on gravestones dating from the 1st century BC, in the graveyards

Please accept my Congratulations for sharing this melancholic and emotional poem along with a fabulous image to COSOFUNNEL Viewers . Awaiting to read more of your poems, Good luck.
