The attribute that I like most about this poem is that it could have different messages for different readers. Thank you so much for sharing. Happy writing and Merry Christmas!
Not sure what you mean here with your intentions, but we often have much love for this who have departed and suffer grief in losing them, love Dolly x x x
Certainly a twist on the whole reincarnation or afterlife... depending on the reader's perspective... Thanx for sharing and best of luck to you in the contest! ;)
Your poem is so full of emotion. And you do it with just a few words. The feeling in that "I'll love you when / You're gone" really struck me. I think it shares the strength of love even when that other half isn't there.
