Petals in the wind

Tree's blowing in the wind
When you're hearts light seems to be encased in the nothingness
Look to those around you
The tree's soft blossoms seem to call to you the ultimate peace
Death is easy
The tree is where all those you've lost wait
But don't you know
They'd be disappointing if you left those around you 
Who try to reach you
Touch empty air
Those who try to die
Hurt those around them more than they hurt themselves
Don't delude
See those You're shoving away clearly
See the pit you'll be leaving in front of them
Don't be selfish
Don say no one will care
Because it's a lie
If someone's left
For the tree of death
or at least that what i call it
Don't rush To catch up
Don't rush for freedom of pain
Because You're not the only one suffering
If you miss them don't worry
There waiting for you

You know what drew me to this poem? The pretty title. Then it was the bright photo. And after that it was your unique screen name. But you know why I like this poem? Not because of the title, or the picture, or your name, or even the way you wrote it but the fact that me, with no one close to me of which is dying, can almost fully understand what it's like to be in that situation. All I can say is thank you.

My gosh. Beautiful poem! When my friends mom died it really freaked me out. Even thinking about loosing the people I love is so painful for me. The fact that you were able to put all of that into words in incredible. Terribly sad but wonderful work :)

My dad is in a nursing home, and i never get to see him. from someone who is watching a loved one die, it puts in perspective we all have different pain and loved one's, included, hold you up.
