You didn’t have to die, Philip Seymour

 

 Before even the night drew closer,

 

 You walked into your sleep, deeper

 

 You woke up, in a wormhole, the point of no return,

 

 An alien place, you know now, it is no more Greenwich Village.

 

 

 

 Friends are still waiting, saddened faced,

 

 Bewildered, we are heart broken,

 

 Hoping for a miracle to happen.

 

 That Master unlocks the door,

 

 With a creepy smile and gusto, Lancaster Dodd pops in.

 

 

 

 I feel to open my mouth, cry my lungs out loud

 

 Does it bother you anymore? I guess not

 

 You didn’t have to die; it’s too early, Philip Seymour.

 

 Regardless, have fun there, wherever, in a boogie night,

 

 Can you do that without us, Mr. Truman Capote? I doubt that, I might.

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

 

I wrote this poem when Philip Seymour died. I was very sad and taken away on his untimely death. I am sharing the poem here.
