Read When I Am Gone

Soon I shall be erased from this planet
I am not for forever
I am immortally mortal being
Born to travel as far as horn can blow

My son you are my forever
In you I find my immortality
When I go remember the beauty of death
We live to leave it some day

Prepare my son for that final transition
It will never last forever
But live your days dedicated to those few seconds
I have loved you when you were just an imagination

I overcame storms to the thought of you
I fought odds to the dream of you
I love you my son with all my strength
Mine love words can never describe but experience can

Never pack all your love in a sweet, chocolate that melts
For love is more precious than gold
Love is that time when you no longer know who you are
That time when all feels part of you

Love dissolves everything
Love is not oil and water
Love is not light weight and heavy weight
Love is synchronization

When I don't tell you I love you
Remember you are nothing but my being
One walks but makes no special mention of a specific organ
For like Love, human bodily activity is an act of collaboration
