Death... Is it truly the end?

Now, I wouldn't consider myself a poet, but yesterday I felt kind of... morbid yet tranquil, so I came up with this...

This is for all of you who have gone and left this world...

Your body may have gone away

But your soul will ever stay

You cease to talk, to run, to cry

But your spirit shan't die

Cold as ice your skin may be

But like the sun you'll keep us warm-

With your eternal memories

Days will pass, months, years

We may forget you momentarily-

But never shall we efface your voice from our ears

In your final hour, your final breath

Those you touched felt something-

Alas, it was death

A wave of emptiness crashes onto the shore

Washing away those not prepared

As time passes we will miss you more

For we think of the days we shared

Gone in flesh, in bone, in blood

Just know that you'll always be loved
