Three Months - A poem I'm not a poet, so y'all can drag my literary tribute for filth if u please, but this is how I processed my grief today through an unexpected mess of tears. Like to hear it, here it go:
Three Months - By Perfume
It's been three months today Three months that I've lied to myself You're not gone You retired You're hiding You're healing You made off through a network of underground tunnels at Paisley Park and Drove off into the sunset You escaped You're not gone Your guitars aren't somewhere collecting dust You're sitting in the South Sea playing your piano on the beach You're not gone You can't be gone You grew me up You taught me to dance You taught me that being different is ok And to be ok you have to be different. That God and Sex aren't mutually exclusive You were my friend in my head My big brother in my head The music doesn't just stop it can't not after all this time is a trick You're not gone You'll never be gone Too many hearts you've touched Too many minds you've opened Too much of you poured out on this earth, spilled onto our ears and into our hearts But. You're gone But only the smallest part of you. The you that we love has returned to Source - the Giver of the gifts you so generously shared The world sounds different without you yet it's more beautiful because of you. Thank u for your time
And 4 living ur design You're never gone.

Wow, I love that there is a community for talented ones to share their poetry. I like what you did here. I would share some of my material, but it is entirely too long. I had written a story called 'Somewhere Here On Earth'. i too wish to believe he is retired. Thank you for sharing. I hope there will be more posts here in the future.

Beautifully expressing what so many of us feel and what we are going through. Thanks for sharing this. Three months, indeed... "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato
