Immortal Poem by Kim Schilling

Haunted
your image there
beyond the grave darkness
reminding me of how we were.
Years of comforting gone
taken from me
Cruelly
screaming my name
to soothe your embittered
wounds, however hollow they be.
For life had place and time
to hold you close.
Enslaved
by open wounds
healed not by God’s time.
Priceless is the pain of his loss
weeping not for the dead
still I am here.
Wounded
soul still living
denial shrouds this mind
your supple hand resting in mine
still warm with amber life
against my heart
beating.



Author notes
This poem is based on the song My Immortal by Evanescence. Every single word represents how I feel today since my soul mate Mike committed suicide a few years ago. It’s like this song was written just for me. I cry every time I hear it. This poem is written from the heart and soul. Enjoy the form
