“Upon My Deathbed” is a tender farewell poem expressing regret, devotion, and eternal love. Written as a final message, it offers comfort to those grieving and reassurance that love lives on beyond this life.
Upon My Deathbed
If I’m unable to write again,
for my doomed world will soon pass by,
I feel compelled to pen a few lines,
which may fall under your teary eye.
Darling, my love for you is deathless,
for it shall ever know no end.
Forgive my faults and times I’ve hurt you,
how thoughtless and foolish I’ve been.
Yet, you were always there for me,
even if I was the one to blame.
When my last gasp of breath escapes me,
it will be whispering your sweet name.
If the dead can come back to this earth,
and spark unseen around those they love.
You shall know that I will be with you,
bringing love for you to take hold of.
I’ll be with you in the brightest day,
and even in the darkest of night.
Amidst your blissful scenes, sad hours,
in spirit, I’ll be clutching you tight.
Don’t be grief-stricken when I am gone;
allured by your everlasting charm.
I’ll always be near, my precious love,
waiting in heaven with open arms.
