A Rainy Day

by Jennifer RIP Lesthat Hayden   Jul 20, 2008


Maybe it was because you were tired as hell
or the slippery roads that made your car impel.
You could have fallen asleep and then slipped
leaving your present body in a crypt.

For whatever reason, you died that day
leaving my mind in complete disarray.
The steep hill made your car flip back
sending you far from the right track.

Six flips and a slide upside down the hill.
It wasn't even killing you until
you hit the bottom and it bashed your head,
leaving you so bloody, grotesque, and dead.

We had so many dreams to live out
and so many things to laugh about.
Such good lives we had in store,
but not with you anymore.

I loved you dearly as a friend.
Our friendship has come to an end,
but it's okay, I'm still here
and I know your spirit's near.

Down you go with your white suit and black tie.
Eventually all of us must die.
Though your death was early, it's okay.
I know I'll meet up with you one day.

Impel: Cause to move forward with force.

Crypt: A cellar or vault or underground burial chamber (especially beneath a church).

Disarray: A mental state characterized by a lack of clear and orderly thought and behavior.

    Whew, it's hard to figure out when you are writing from a real experience, or wether you are emoting and just writing for the sake of writing. but either way, i'm sorry to have had the chance to come and check in, only to find out that something like this supposedly happened to you. I'm so sorry that i wasn't there to talk to you. I hope that this is just another write for the sake of wriitng that you do.. but judgeing by the fact that everything you've posted lately has been sad, i think something must be going on... please know that i'm here now to talk if you need to share....

    hugs you tightly*

    Just as great as all your others. Honestly, no flaws in any of your recent poems. They all are so smoothly written, awesome flow.. amazing words. :] I think it's very thoughtful of you to actually put a word bank at the bottom if someone doesn't understand what a word means. Keep writing, keep being amazing, yadaydaya. The same stuff I always tell you. You got it down, :) 5/5
