Darkest Day

by TheDarkCloudBehindthePoet   Feb 7, 2013


When you left I heard a crow cry,
It felt like a movie when the main character dies,
The flowers crumbled and grass turned gray,
My heart broke on this dark filled day,

I cried, it felt like I was going insane,
Because you are gone, but still on my brain,
My hand in my chest where my heart use to be,
Falling to my kness and now I can't see,

Lost the taste in my mouth, now I can't hear,
But it doesn't matter, because you are not near,
My life feels over, there's no reason to live,
My spirit was taken away, I have nothing left to give,

Now I feel numb, and can't walk,
My emotions are shot, and now I can't talk,
I'm nothing without you, this is the end of me,
Because the world envied us, so we can never be,

-Christopher Green

    Sorry it took me so long to response rebecca, but I wanted to sit and write a good response to your comment, because you poured your heart out. We live and die with the tough decisions we make. You felt like you had to make that decision to leave to better yourself. The people we leave behind always hurt our heart. We never want to leave, most of the time we wish we could take them with us, especially our significant others. The pain will always be with us until we come home to our loved ones. I know that you and your partner will get better, especially if both of you want it to work. Thank you for pouring it all out for me. I'm happy by poem touched you in any kind of way. Thank you

    This saddens me...because I know this is how my partner feels. I was the one who left and she was shattered, shocked and unsuspecting...but I had to leave for me...I was not happy, though I loved her so much and still do...now we are seperated by distance/miles and I regret the choice I made but know also it was the right thing for me...she is still so hurt, and I too hurt and cry. We are working on things and hopefully we will be okay...but this poem was exactly the situation and feelings both her and I are in so I thank you for your words...I wish you the best.

    I loveeeeeeee this. Have to add this to my faves!

    I agree with Maple, the first line was so eye catching and unique, it actually made me stop and think of a crow crying and how no one would even notice this.

    As for your poem, the love story it tells tugs at the heart and I for one can relate to this and relate to the darkness that follows after the loss of a great loved one. you feel there is just no life anymore. Your words are very touching and have really settled in my heart.

    Will read this many times, thanks for sharing.x

      Thank you Baby Rainbow! Its not easy for me to write about my lost love ya know. I have to re-experience all the sad emotions in every line, but if I can show you how I feel and make you smell, and taste what I was going through then I feel I did my job. Thank you ;)
