A Nightmare
i long to share with
you something i live with everyday search for the words
to talk about the
emptiness the big 'O' the rattle of the razor blades
shus-shus the feel
of the cold c-o-l-d-burr-c-o-l-d
the darkness were
there are no words the pain contained oh-weeeeee
yet i look to the
horizon do i expect your return do I expect to see you there
still the words
elude me hide in secret places behind every heart beat
thump-thump/ thump-thump/ thump-thump
thump-thump/ thump-thump/ thump-thump
between the notes
that float in thin air (hummed not spoken)
in just five days
you will die... the darkness descends it is the day you died
last year
it seems like only
yesterday memories sharp & clear burned into my brain
into my heart i
never dreamed (for it would be a nightmare)
i would live to see
the day you would go for good always I kept the light on for you
so you could find
your way home i do not wish to focus on beginnings & endings
always on the spaces
in between this is where i find you ...waiting for me
my tears water the
dry ground it isn't true i scream but it is the truest thing i know

A silent and painful cry for love revisited, and seeking closure. Very well written!
Very Nice - I like the pattern as well as the content. The loss of love, or one we love shakes the ground we walk upon.
I am touched by "always I kept the light on for you, so you could find your way home." I can see the tears watering dry desert ground.....and I feel the impact of "it is the truest thing I know." It is hard to believe it has been a year. The anniversaries are always so hard - especially this first one, I am sure. I am so sorry, my friend.
Ah.. the tears of the truest scream.. i know.. is a dry tear of horror
i know all too well.. when all is left of life is
scream.. i hope that tears of
joy do come your way..:)
for what is left
in loving life..:)
