Head leaned down in crooked hands
a sobbing tearful gasping pain
The rain pours down around my body
soaks me through
down to my bones
I look to the sky
wetness streaming down my face
black lines down my scarred cheeks
jagged and cold
so cold
so alone
I can almost hear your breath
close to me
feel your hands
strong and warm
caressing my shoulders
comforting
I open my arms to the sky
how could you leave me?
I fall forward
my fists on the cold slab
"HOW COULD YOU LEAVE ME?!!"
The voice echoes through the abandoned graveyard
scratching and ragged
full of every thing I have to offer
all the hate
despair
agony
empty of everyone
I was alone when I came here
not a soul but me to mourn for you
wearing black
trailing through the mud
in the freezing rain
trembling
crying
you healed me
you had saved me
and then
you broke me
I hate god.
He took you away to a place I cannot reach
so cliche
so so... cliche
but I don't dance around the truth
as much as I would love to caress the lies
hold them to my chest
close and smile
for your memory
I cannot
for I am the only one at this funeral
the only one left
the only one
for you
I was feeling a little sad. And I just put all that into this poem, it's very raw and I might go back and smooth it out later. But for now this is what I have.
