(Dedicated to all my friends) <br /> <br />I leave you for awhile, <br />Into the silent land I pile, <br />Take this kiss upon your brow, <br />As I stand amid the sorrow, <br />And I hold within my hand, <br />Friendship grains of the golden sand <br /> <br />O’ how it hurts to see they creep, <br />Through my fingers while I weep, <br />O’ god can I not grasp? <br />Your sand of care with a tighter clasp <br /> <br />When you can’t hold me by hand, <br />Only remember, don’t grieve my friend, <br />Look below as you might see, <br />The golden sand is there to be <br /> <br />Don’t stand at my grave and forever weep, <br />I’m not there, I don’t sleep, <br />I’m the wind that blows through your cheek, <br />I’m the star that you can always seek… <br /> <br />Don’t stand at my grave and forever cry, <br />I’m not there, I don’t die, <br />For I’ll be gone just for awhile, <br />Better by far remember and smile…<br /><br />Missy Anna<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/just-for-awhile/
