A Letter to Myself After Death

A Letter to Myself After Death

A Poem by Paper Forks

To my dearest self after death,
I know that this is unexpected but I have something to tell you.
My mind and my body were grateful to have you. 
You lent me the strength to beat all my demons 
and cemented my beliefs and accepted my feelings. 
And now that you're gone, just relive our experience. 
I know that you're suffering because of all the hideous 
things we committed against the gods and all of humanity 
and I see that you're angry and afraid to face reality. 
However, you might had not noticed, everything is over. 
You may had failed the tests but I assure you, 
you are still my friend and
I will always accept you just for being who you are. 
I know it sounds cliche but you need to understand 
that we're only humans and we make mistakes. 
So just forget all the troubles that you left behind 
and let me deal with everything. 
I may not know your destination or how your journey would unfold
but if you ever find yourself alone, and burdened 
with a lot of pain, just look above, 
and be grateful for the confirmation of our existence.
Sincerely, myself before death.

Wise wisdom shared in the poetry.
"I know it sounds cliche but you need to understand

Life is chances. We will know success and failure. The above lines were my favorite. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and thoughts.
