Have you ever loved someone so much                                 you feel your heart more? Not an expression, no literally they make                                                   your heart sore. When you know they're your heart and you are their armor. But what happens when karma                   turns right around and bites you. So the one you most adore then turns on                                                 you to spite you. "Spoke as if my armor now it seems as if                     you forgot what it is inside you." Your smile was the thought, the only one                                                I'd sleep tight too. Many moons have since passed yet I still       struggle to sleep a whole night through. I keep on having this dream. Why do I keep dreaming this dream? Where there's a sun gleamin', birds singin' It's spring and, to my side lays a queen and, I smile as I go to kiss her, tell her I miss her She goes "baby I'm so warm your eyes                 might be stars is what I'm thinkin'. Next thing I know it's just me standing in                                                            the mirror. These ******* walls must be talking cause                                          **** I can hear em. They're saying don't you dare take for                granted what you've lived through. You got one more chance so **** it you                                                                       fight. For all that pain endured better not be                                                          for nothing! Now go out there before it's too late and show even pain can be good for something! I walk out to 20,000 people cheering out                                                            their seats. Throwing roses at my feet, it's oh so loud! When I open my mouth a hush falls over                                                             the crowd. Like wow, this is what being an artist is all                                                                     about. "Remember when you spoke as if you were                                                            my armor? What beauty, for what has become of you                                            the perfect martyr." "Here comes a poem of my heart, before        I depart. Let my words be your armor." Just know that, When I'm gone just carry on, don't mourn, rejoice every time you read my words feel                                                               my voice. And just know that, I'm not underground, you'll see when the      suns around, me looking down... Smilin'. So just feel my voice whenever you're feeling pain, and know that I feel the same.                                                And smile back

A Poem for When I'm Gone
Have you ever loved someone so much                                 you feel your heart more?
