Beyond Forever

I shall hold onto YOU,
for FOREVER

There is a Russian saying,
That translates:
I HOLD EVEN ONTO DEATH

That I should hold onto YOU!
Nor would you ever leave,
As LONG as I shall remember thy,
Nor shall you look upon your END,
In HORROR to be thy demise.

For you MUST see your death as I do,
A reward, as a life well lived,
I for years as seen DEATH as my muse,
She is NOT horror,
She is MY light,

A friendly face,
That knows of the mystery,
Of the BEYOND,
As SHE, herself dies,
Every 100 years,
To TASTE life,
In Death,
As she lives for ONLY a DAY.
But YOU my PARENTS
Have lived thousands upon thousands of days,
And will live forever,
As long as legacy shall remember thee.
