Lifeless

by january friend   Sep 6, 2006


I heard of your death
Tragic yes
But not everyone cares
As I do
Swimming in a murky depth
It dwells alone
Under rock and reef
Like a knife
It pierces your chest
Pierces my heart
In another's perspective
So in mine
The truth comes into my mind slowly
Taking time for me to believe
That you are gone
...forever...
Blond streaks fall across your face
As I look into bright blue eyes
That are drained of life
Blood stains the water red
...goodbye...
Though I will never forget
wounds heal somewhat
As years pass
And you begin to fade in my mind
But never fade completely
Goodbye

    Wow.. i can really relate to this. It was beautifully written with such strong emotion. I love the last lines "And you begin to fade in my mind. But never fade completely. Goodbye" It makes me want to cry, I completely understand this feeling.. when you begin to forget little details.. but you will never forget them.. anyway this was amazing, flawlessly written. I really enjoyed reading it. Well done :) 5/5 for suree :)

    That was a really sad poem with some excelent imagery. i liked the free verse style of it as i find most other styles very generic. and the ending was perfect. i reallyloved these lines
