There She Lies

Contributed by SilverDagger on Friday, 29th December 2006 @ 11:52:39 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



There she lies
Serene at last
Her end was quick and fast
No more troubles causing her harm
No more nightmares to keep her awake
Night after night
Her eyes shut, face tranquil
Look, she no longer cries

Here was hope
Here were dreams built on wishes
Wishes built on love
That love now lost gone
But, didnt she know?
The answer is no
She thought they didnt care, no one did
If they did, theyd know of her plight
Shed still be here had they loved her, right?

There used to be laughter
Sounds of mirth in the very room where she now lies
It would ring through the walls
Carrying joy to the hearts of others
She would make everyone laugh
Yet, when it came to herself
She would falter, weeping instead
As the days agony sunk in at night
Aggravated by the fights
Silent tears would fall into the pillow.

She is gone now
Nothing will change that fact or bring her back
No words, no tears
She cannot see now nor hear
These thoughts should have been conveyed
While she was breathing, not after death!
As she is taken away
Her body brushing against the sweetness of the air
Now cold against her skin
Which was once rosy now pale,
There erupts a heartrending wail.

Two young eyes follow her
Their innocence claimed by tragedy
Streams flowing from them
As they behold a loved one dead
The child no longer visible
Lost forever as loss kills the child
And seeds of maturity are sown
For only this will help him survive
He lets out one last cry of anguish
And stares unblinking keeps on staring
As though it will make her live again
Foolish hope! He is still such a child.

There she lies
Misunderstandings and nonexistent communication
She how they claim a life!
Years of labour, years of love
Now come to waste in an abrupt end
A young life with so much to offer
Now gone forever, all of a sudden
She had only wanted acceptance
But ensnared in and confounded
By webs of deceit, disillusionment and mostly lapses in comprehension
She lost all desire to live
What a shame!
And now, there she lies

I hope you dont come to dislike this write.
I myself found it profound in content and poetic flow. One of those writes that reached right in and grabbed hard on my heart.
