Position:Home>Poetry> Death's Freedom, my poem, please read?Question:This may or may not make any sense to you, but to me it tells a story, one of pain and joy. Please tell me what you think, Thanks! Death's Freedom Cold rain fell, drenching us all, Everyone ran for cover, Leaving her dead and forgotten. With a heavy heart I stayed, How could they be so uncaring? Was it not she who lifted them In the darkest hour When all threatened to consume us? Soaking from head to toe, You would never see my tears, And my gentle sobs went unheard. Sweet angel of God, With a selfless soul Your life became the greatest gift You gave to us in the night When evil was afoot. Without your sacrifice Death would have conquered life Leaving all hope of salvation broken And lifeless on the ground. Please, my heavenly Father, Accept this child, For a child she was, As a part of the chorus That sings in the heavens. Give her wings to soar Above the clouds And grant her eternal freedom From the afflictions that had been hers During her life on Earth. A soft cry tumbled from my lips As I finished this prayer. I glanced about to find The courtyard empty and foreboding Closing my eyes I imagined Angelica sitting with God and His son By the golden gates of heaven, A warm smile filled her face, Peace was at last hers. One last tear slipped down my cheek, She gave her life in the mist Of terror to save those she loved, And some she never knew, And her reward has been found By the open gates of heaven. I will not forget you, my daughter. Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: This may or may not make any sense to you, but to me it tells a story, one of pain and joy. Please tell me what you think, Thanks!
