Poetry: Not the End

One day my world will end

I try to think about my blessing instead

I know we all must go

I just want to be near them so

Life has given me many trials

but not without great lessons

I've learned how to be

there for the ones who need me

Never will I ask for a thing

Just let me feel alive and sing

I'm needed God don't you see

My job in this world isn't about me

It's about my family

My one and only treasure in my life

Let me breathe into them

Love, laughter, and more love

I promise to love them

and keep them

within the warmth

Of my wings
