Love Poem: Come and See Me Fade Away

Written by: Arthur Vaso

Come and See Me Fade Away

Sap has run dry
Time for me to die

My smile has run away
On the horse of my childhood

Spring will be no more
A season beyond my grasp

Life has fluttered away
Wasted moments, in lines

Gluttonous desires have filled me
With veins of death

No love to hold
No life I am told

Voices dancing in my head
Sweet words after I am dead

Ravens and crows all in black
Line up behind the vultures in suits

The last song, whispers her sad melody
As a silent ghost comes along

To witness my demise
Kissing the cold grey stone 

Beholden to dreary skies
As I rest among the rodents and flies
