Riding the Spirits
"Don't...."
"Don't let me die..."
My prayer to her as I open my
eyes each morning.
Smile for me; Don't let me die.
My prayer to her upon each
Breath I take.
Don't let me die...
Let me breathe; Let me wake.
Don't let me die; It's for your
sake...
That I live. That I breathe.
That I long to believe-
There is a small hope to perceive,
A better existence for us all.
Don't let me die...
Don't.

***Afterthought***I do not wish to end my life .Nor do I entertain suicidal thoughts on a regular basis.This poem was written in throws of a new chapter in my life called "new-motherhood".It was just a way of letting off some steam and shedding some fear.
