narrative poen- FOREVER YOUNG
I arrive in Nova Scotia around December
I look out at the ocean I remember
It does not give me the same natural feeling
With the death of a friend, my happiness it was stealing
Back on the beach the sand is frozen
The comfort of friends saves my heart from erosion
A waterfall of tears stream down my face
Every star feels like is out of its place
I go to the same yacht club I went to as a kid
Suddenly the blood running through my veins feels like acid
The pain I feel is so bad I could vomit
Time goes by as fast as a comet
A guillotine my heart has been in over the past year
The horror and sadness has seemed to disappear
My feelings are no longer gruesome or repulsive
Reasons why he took her will forever be suspensive
She was an angel on loan to us
So I will try not to fuss
Isabel was a friend I could trust
Living in honor is now a must
Second poem:
FOR ISABEL
Have I not commanded you?
Be strong and courageous.
Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged,
For the lord, your God
Will be with you wherever you go.
Without a struggle
There can be not progress
Live as if you were to die tomorrow
Learn as if you were to live forever
For the purpose of life
Is a life of purpose
