The Monologue of JB Sabey

 Press play and let the emotional music wash over you as you read. 

Salute.

For all the ones lost to someone special, in these dark times, especially this year.

(A lone voice whispers)

Although you cannot see me

I'm still here
Just now free
In these new lands of no fears

Nothing scary has happened

I'm now just at peace

All my dreams I had about the Afterlife

have come true

So I'm just visiting from here
Just to see you

I can see your beautiful eyes
Which still sparkle and twinkle

I can still see the real you
Beneath all those tired old
Wrinkles

For the power of true love

Compels us to see all

It's that simple 

Just never forget me but
Speak my name at Christmas

And every other day

For you invite me to revisit
And through old memories
Play

Just remember me

Or I'll forget to ever
Call this way

For you see

Some of my friends and old family
Wait beyond this Great Divide

And my time is taken with retelling old stories

Hearing new ones and enjoying their
Newfound glories

So don't forget me

Not even for a day and I promise
I'll always appear your way

I appear in many diverse forms

A Robin
A Feather
A reflection
Or voice

It all depends on me

For it's my divine choice

But I'll always try to revisit

To lift your broken heart that breaks
And help you to rejoice

To always try to stand beside you

For a brief moment or for eternity

Above all of life’s noises

To hold your soft tired hands
As old memories are enjoyed

So don't you dare forget me
With times passing but invite me by name

And I'll call

Through all harsh winds
And the pouring rain

Say my name and I'll appear

To see the one
I still cherish and hold dear

Just don't forget me with the passing of time

Just remember me as you hear this rhyme

And I'll revisit 

Until your bell too
Begins to chime

And we are together again

In heavens
Eternal sunshine

Until then
I'll just keep visiting
And calling by

To remember all those wonderful moments

When
You were just mine and drove me crazy

And even though deep down

My soul too cries

I'll always love you forever baby

Your beloved first love

JB Sabey
