My body lay motionless,
Full of pain and torment.
Hazel eyes swollen from tears, and
A fragile heart, broken upon the floor.
That one phone call changed everything,
Not only my present, but my future as well.
A couple words from the other end,
Made me collapse into a world of despair.
Hearing them tell me you’re gone,
Shock took over every aspect of me.
Disbelief moving in.
Seeing you lay motionless,
Cold at the touch
Tortured me.
Your beautiful face lost forever,
Beneath the frozen ground.
To know I’ll never see you again,
Ripped me to shreds.
Too soon and too young,
The pain fades away.
My heart pieced back together.
All our memories cherished, and
Our many stories shared.
Never will I forget what you meant to me, and
Not too long down the road,
I know I’ll see you again.
It's good. The reader can feel your pain after reading the poem. It makes their heart break for you.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh this moved me.
ReplyDeleteWould you quit making me bawl!
ReplyDeleteNo I really appreciate this.
I find your work very comforting, it really helps me too, keep up the good stuff!
I will never forget her, or that night at the wake. It was really helpful having you there for support.
Thank you Heather, you’re a great friend.
Ps. If you ever need to talk anything out or just need someone to lean on just give me a call or come over anytime. I would be happy to listen.
