A Fragmented Bond

by Elizabeth   Jul 31, 2007


I search and search
But there's no words to describe
This pain, this fear, that I feel inside.

For as long as I can remember it's been you and me
And I guess I figured that's how it would always be
But now your gone and the world seems wrong.

There's a whole in my heart that will never be filled
When you died I was killed.

In one split second I lost it all
A sister, a friend and part of my soul.

As we lay your body into the ground
I am lost, and you are found.

Up to the heaven you must go,
And I must stay in the dark ...
Lost and alone.

This is where we part, you and me
Go with him ...
I set you free.
The pain is over for you but only just begun for me

I've cried and I've cried yet there's tears left to shed
From this moment on I'll live in dread

You are gone ...
And I am dead.

    Wow! I want to thank Hellon and Anonymous for your kind words ... although, this is a fictional poem. I actually wrote this one after one of my sister's ex's brother was murdured. It's an interesting story actually, you see me and my sister where sitting around talking about what had happened and about how horrible it must have been for her ex(he was very close to his brother) ... and I started thinking, what would it be like to be in that situation?! So i sat down and ACTUALLY thought about it, you know, tried to put myself in her ex's shoes ... and I just wrote ... and it turned out beautifully. This poem was probably the hardest I've had to write because it came from somewhere so real and so true, just thinking about what my life would be like without my sister(s) shook me ... it just rocked me to the core; I don't think i've ever cried the way I did when I was writing this poem before, just thinking about it now is making me sick (lol). Anyways, so thats the story of this poem and as always please comment and/or vote to let me know how you feel.
