Last Bye
January 15th, 2009
A message arrives
announcing
Your aunt has deceased.
I stop dead in my tracks.
A sudden bolt
of shock
STRIKES
me
My heart
R.
I.
P.s in HA LF
Half dies
Half cries in pain
January 16th, 2009
The funeral
The sound,
The smell
of death
c r e e p s
towards me
A regret
enters my mind.
Why wasn’t I nicer to her?
I scream like a lion
And pound my chest
Like a gorilla
Hoping she will come back
But nothing comes back
All I see
is a p o
n d of t
e
a
r
s
filled with sorrow, shock, sadness.
I pray
she will
SHINE
like a star
in heaven
I pray
She will live
in peace,
in happiness
I call her name
for the
last time.
Then
I let
her
go.
