What mysteries await
What secrets stand beyond the door
When my life I take

Is it as the Christians teach
of paradise and hell
Or as the atheist believe
Only one way to tell

As Columbus did in days of old
To explore the great unknown
But no Nina, Pinta or Santa Maria
For this I do Alone

Please don’t grieve or shed a tear
Of sadness do not partake
Place no blame and feel no guilt
The decision was mine to make

And if by chance you think of me
As the years unfold
I hope you smile with fond remembrance
And close to your heart those hold

I love the rhyme and flow of this verse. To lose someone that you love deeply can bring about all these emotions and feelings. You have expressed those emotions beautifully in this piece.

Brilliantly put- great writing- I'm glad you didnt go through with it- it would have been such a shame to lose such a talented writer

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
