Please Don't Cry

Please Don't Cry

A Poem by Lexi Nicole
"

Honey, I have to go now, but please don't cry for me.

"

I didn’t see him falling until it was too late
I couldn't catch him then for I was too far away
I saw him hit the ground and I fell to my knees and cried
Mourning the days I spent with him, and the nights we never had
When a voice floated down from heaven asked me not to be so sad

“Honey, I see those pearly gates
And St. Peter’s calling me
He says it’s time for me to go
But there’s one thing I have to let you know.”

And then I felt his soft lips light upon my cheeks
And away in the distance I heard all the angels sing

“Honey, I have to go now
But please don’t cry for me
Baby, it’s all gonna be okay
This is not the last of me.”

So that night I went back home
And wouldn’t let myself cry
Because he told me not to
Though I didn’t really know why
And in the morning the first thing I saw
Was a rose on the window sill
I reached out to grab it
But it was gone too fast

I looked around the room when I swore I heard a laugh
I understood right then and there why I was not to cry
Though we’re separated by clouds and sky
He’s always by my side
