Conversation With Death

Written By: Mike Deregowski
I am done with you Death
I am done with the pain you cause
I am done with the unfairness of losing
beings I love to you
I am done with having to move on every time
you decide to make yourself known

You hide under your cloak like a coward
You don't look at the agony in a person’s eyes

after you are gone
You lurk in the shadows

waiting for your next opportunity to strike
I am done with you Death

Picture
I am done with you Human
I am done with your whining and
blaming me for your sorrow
I am done being cursed whenever my
job needs to be done

I hide my grief under my cloak
I hide my pain from having to pull away
the being that loves you, knowing full
well you will hate me
I wish there was something I could do
to make this process easier
I understand you Death
I understand your job isn't easy
I understand the necessities of your function
I understand, in time, my grief will go away
and that my loved one isn't suffering anymore
I understand you Death

I understand you Human
I understand you form emotional connections
you know have to end, eventually, by my hand
I understand your reluctance to let go of the
one you loved
I understand your need for closure
I understand you Human

Never Lost...

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
What once was loved
Can never be lost

In times of great sorrow
In times of great pride
I am always with you
I am always by your side

Although you can't see me
I will always be there
When your world gets too lonely
When it is to much to bare

Don't mourn in my absence
Celebrate instead
For the time we had together
Is time we will never forget

When you think of me with sadness
And you shed a few tears
I will stand there beside you
And whisper "I love you" in your ears

Though our time together is done
And we are apart
You will always be in my memory
And hold a place in my heart

What we had lives on in memory
What we had holds true
I will love you forever
My love is never lost for you

    Born and raised in Edmonton AB, Mike is the youngest of three kids. As a child, he always had an active imagination and used it frequently. He enjoyed playing with building blocks and action figures, creating elaborate stories each time they were pulled out of the boxes.

    Although Insane Sanity is his first published work, Mike hopes to dazzle minds and imaginations with more plays, and a novel series currently in the works.

    With the release of Gor Chronicles: Awakenings, Mike is closer to realizing a dream of having a novel series of his own. 

    He is very thankful for all the wonderful support from family and friends, and is excited to continue work on his writing dreams.
