This is a beautiful poem by one of my dear friends Blaquetouch, hope you like it as much as I do.*

As I celebrate my death
little did I know my choices will course my end
that my joys will be temporary and my sorrows eternal
that my selfishness will be my downfall
and my greed my death.

As I celebrate my death
little did I realise happiness is for all
that not only my happiness should be important
that life gives you back what you invest in it
and nothing out of spite

As I celebrate my death
taking her man not knowing that I'm taking her coffin
making him mine and his AIDS my inheritance
riding his car only to be driven in a hearse later
enjoying le'good life at her expense
but giving her even a better chance in life
to live longer and positive.

YES I celebrated my death
Thought I knew better
that I am more beautiful and deserving
thought I can have it all without a risk
and live to see it all unfold
as he left her for me

I laughed my life away
flirted my future
boozed a chance to see my grandkids
but the worst thing I did
was to **** my life to death with an *** Positive Married Man
if he could cheat on her with me
chances are he's cheating on me with someone else
but my selfish mind was not that strong
all I wanted was to be happy
yet I kept stolen good to keep me happy

CELEBRATED MY DEATH PREMATURELY
AND NOW MY COFFIN IS A LESSON TO
DO UNTO OTHERS, AS YOU WOULD LIKE THEM TO DO UNTO YOU
MY COFFIN IS A LESSON THAT
MUCH AS U DESERVE HAPPINESS, SO IS SHE
THAT WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES AROUND IN 10-FOLDS

Rather celebrate life and live to die a blameless soul
who tried to do good at all times and succeeded.
Celebrate Life

I will let go of me for you
No matter the cost
Your love seems to brighten the new me
Not reaching to the standard I have set
My heart is satisfied with your smile
Letting go of me is easy
Learning what you want me to be is hard

Giving up on myself
I walk on the shoes of this person
She is only known by you
You made her
I try to keep up with the requirements
Just so I dont loose you
While letting go of me

I am letting go of me for you
Like a infant gazing in his mother's eyes
Reading her every thought
I stare at your movements
Learning each meaning of your words
I dont want to loose you
I become who you want me to be
I am letting go of me for you

As I let go of myself
What will happen to me when you gone
What a dangerous thing to do
Letting go of my whole existence for love
Who will be me when I become you
The perfect creature that laughs so freely

I am letting go of you for me
Someone will one day appreciate
The me that loves so easily
The I that enjoys dancing in the rain
He will cherish the moments you took for granted

I am not letting go of me
But I am letting go of you
Goodbye my love
I am embracing the beauty given as a gift
It is in me
I can't let go of it
I am letting go of you for me

You say you want my love
My sweet lips you want to taste
My heart you want to feel
My skin you want to caress
Let me tell you a story you don't wanna hear
Of the love that broke my heart

I miss him so much I want to cry
Days have gone by and I haven't seen him
His bright face still smiles at me in my mind
With eyes that wink at my intelligence
"Tee, don't ever leave me again"
His last words that touched my heart

I miss him so much my heart bleeds
Days have gone by and I haven't heard from him
His kind words still ring in my head today
"**** you are ****"
His last words that got me to smile

I miss him so much my mind cannot fathom
Days have gone by and I haven't touched him
His gentle hands would lay on my hips
as he pulls me with his strong hand
Gently to his sweet breath

I miss him so much my body shakes
Like an addict longing for a fix one more time
I long for his tight squeezing arms around me
He lays there so close yet so far
"Should I wake him for a fix of pleasure"
My last thoughts before my trauma

My love left me alone
To a place I cannot reach
I want to go there each time
I miss his gentle touch
I miss his heavy compassionate eyes on me
With his body beside me
A perfect plan to bring him back
I gently kissed his lips with care
Hoping for love to respond not despair
Like a corpse with no feel he finally said
"Tee we shouldn't do this"
His last words that killed my heart

This story is too deep for me to tell
So listen to me my love
I will get straight to the point
Don't expect me to love with no heart
It got killed during an emotional warfare
Stabbed with a double edged sword of rejection
It bled out all the sweetness
I have no heart to give you my love
I call you love out of normality
Like his words broke me
I don't think we should be doing this!

Tears fell from her eyes
In disbelieve she rolled her frail body like a ball
Holding her feeble knees to her face
Her heart pumped pain through her body
"What will I do without you", she cried
Tears fell from her eyes

Right next to her he sleeps every night
Better conversations with his phone he has
His fingers typed in quick responses of laughter
While she read the Holy Book in pain
Silence was the music that kept them at peace
While tears ran down her pink cheeks

He left her for the woman on the phone
A tight competition of broken word
Texting has become a norm in the house
While she cooks the food demanded in rage
Crippled by fear of the fist
She cries and stirs the pots of pain

Tears of pain fell from her eyes
She talks to the man upstairs every night
About the vile man sleeping next to her
Touching her body with ***** hands
Lusting for her figure and not her heart
She cries in sorrow and waits for tomorrow

Her tears did not fall on the ground
The Man upstairs counted them all
He put them in a bottle
"This too shall pass my dear child"
Tears of Joy fell from her eyes
Because her prayers have been heard

Make me dear Father who you want me to be
Break all the ties of evil that bind me
Sorround me with thy love
And may thy Spirit guide me all the way

Make me O lord who u want me to be
Take away this wicked heart
Give me a new one fresh from heaven
May your love tie me all the way

Make me O Lord who you want me to be
Holy and acceptable in your eyes
May I be found blameless without spots
May your grace cover me all the way

Make me O Lord who you want me to be
I approach thy throne of grace
Seeking perfection in thy eyes
May your peace be found in me always

Make me O lord who u want me to be
Break the chains of *******
Tangling this heart of mine
May your kindness shower me all the way

Make me O Carpenter of old
Lead me O Gentle sherperd
Mold me O creator
I want to be like Christ

I have found a place so precious
A place of peace and quiet rest
Its so serene and beautiful
It makes one wonder where it was all along

I have found a place of joy and love
Like darkness giving respect to light
Sadness gives way to tranquility
There is something about this place
That turns the bad to good
How can a simple place give me comfort?

This place is in your arms
Where the skin of our chests meet
Heart beat against heart beat
The sweetest melody is formed
A place where all stands still
Your heart echoes in the background
And only the feel of your sweet breath confirms life
A place of peace and love

If only you were mine to keep
I would wonder to this place all day long
I would hide from the world and worry not
I would listen to the sound of your heart
Did you know that hearts sing better than voices?
All day long your heart would sing to me
If only you were mine to keep.

— The End —
