Alone I Break

ShadowPsychos on Sep 17, 2010

This is a quick poem I did for a charity book for lost and murdered children which will be published soon.

I can still hear the murmur of your beautiful voice

your precious joyful laugh

a verse of everything that once was right

I can still see your muddy footprints travelling along the floor

scuttling playtime’s fun through my memories

alone, at night I break

clutching on to your tattered teddy wishing it was you

what else is there for me to do?

praying for my tears to form you back into my life

and for your eyes to still shine, longing to be by my side

I am lost without you

your empty bed still whispers hope

and the empty garden still calls your name

all I am forced into – is to sit and wait

and wait some more for a sign to fall

to spiral down from my darkened skies

with the sweet sound pounding your breath

bringing you back safe and sound

to calm my fragile heart

come back to me with your smile

embracing the right side up

for my days will remain

forever broken in dreams without you here.

SP…this is a gut-wrenching poem that really tugged on my heartstrings and I had difficulty reading it through tear-stained eyes as you strongly protrayed the powerful emotion over the loss of a little one…kudos to you my friend for such a magnificent piece of literary art work…an unusual, but refreshing change from a great deal of your work…thank you for displaying this side of your psyche…and of course, I voted I like this one…
