There She Lies

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.

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 day’s agony sunk in at night
Aggravated by the fights
Silent tears would fall into the pillow.
that part is the part i relate to most i love this poem i feel its telling the future of what will happen to me if i do something crazy and wat will happen to my family
i really love this poem and i hope u do to great work
