Frozen Tears

by BrightEyes71   Nov 25, 2004


Standing here listening to the wind,
the chills up and down my spine,
the tears are frozen on my cheeks,
if only I could take back time,

I remember the times of joy,
the warm summer days and nights,
the smiles that never stopped,
why did you have to fight?

I can see my breath in the air,
if only it was yours I see
Why'd you have to step in?
Why didn't you just leave me?

I shouldn't be the one,
who made it through that day,
I shouldn't be starring at you,
with tears falling down my face

You should be the one alive,
I should be lying there,
I am supposed to be dead,
Why'd you have to care?

Flashbacks blurry my vision,
I see the way I fought,
then I see you step in,
and I see you take the shot

You looked at me as you fell,
I screamed in shock and fear,
then I say dad runway,
with another beer

I saw your eyes slowly close,
as you whispered,"I'm not going to make it,"
I ran to you in gasps I said,
"No, Please you can take it!"

But before you could respond,
I saw you breathe nothing more,
I say and wept forever,
till police came through the door

Now, I'm putting a rose on your casket,
knowing it should be me,
I can't believe my brothers dead,
how can this be?

They lower you into the ground,
I say goodbye for now,
I know we'll meet again,
Someday, in Heaven, Somehow

RATE MY POEM!!!!
