In A moment, maybe even a second

by ~*~*Jenna Leigh*~*~   Jan 2, 2006


In a moment so much can happen
so much no one reall knows.
but what happens to me is in a
split moment, maybe even a second.

i remember when my knees let go.
and i hit the floor.
hands on eyes
holding the tears back.
saying, \"why god? why now?\"
but no one would respond.

days go by
till i see her body agian.
this time lying motionlessly
in the casket.
hands over chest.
eyes peacfully shut.
make up beautifuly done,
like she could have done it herself.

hours go by
time to go.
go and put her to peacful rest,
where she can be the man she loved for so long before.

my eyes,
they blur,
as i watch the casket start to go,
five feet under.
and as i watch the soft brown dirt,
fill the hole where she lay peacfully.
i look around,
and see the other ones i love,
frozen as if they werent even alive.
i look around agian,
to see all the other grave stones.
one says,
In loving memory of Sarah Nicole,
died July 4th, 1997...my cousin,
only 17.
another says,
william mason, died Jan 1st 2000,
my grandfather.
and some day soon beside him
it shall say,
Evelyn Fern, died Jan 5th, 2005,
a loving mother and grandmother,
but to me,
my best friend,
gone in a moment, maybe even a
second...
