Love is the greatest thing anyone has to offer


I stay alive to see your last smile I stay alive to see you take your last breath
I stay alive to hear your last words
I stay alive to hear your stories
I stay alive to feel your last gentle squeeze to my hand
I stay alive to feel the experience you had for everything
I stay alive to taste the last meal you made
I stay alive to see your last memories playing infront of me
I stay alive because you told me to live my life
the rest of it
Im not always going to stay alive because Im going to die when Im ready
When I die we will never see our last smiles because we will always need them
When I die we will never take our last breath because we are going to keep on breathing
When I die we will never have to hear our last words because we will never really be dead
When I die we will always be able to hear our stories because they will be with us forever
When I die I will never have to feel your last gentle squeeze to my hand because we will be together
When I die I will never taste the last meal you made because it won't be the last because your right here with me
When I die it is because I'm ready
And because I wanted to be with you
When I die we will be together forever
And Life Will Still Go On
Even After We Die

One thing that made me inspired to write this poem is my grandmother. I was there when she died. When I die I want to join her and keep living even after I die.
