Death Today Poem by Mathew Sutter

Today someone I loved died,
No, I'm sure I will be okay...
Outside I smile and appear to be happy...
But, inside...
Well, there is a war going inside of me.
Both sides are losing and both sides are winning.
Cannons are being blasted and shots are being fired...
It's chatoic inside and I feel like I'm dieing too.

I tell my parents I'm fine, that I will survive
They walk away and leave me alone...

You will find me in a dark corner,
Screaming and crying...
Pleading for an angel to give me back my loved one.
But, no all I hear is laughter from below me
And the ground shakes.

Someone I loved died today,
And I feel like I'm dieing too...
Though, I don't let it on
And I smile like I used too.

Someone I loved died today,
And I'm stiching up the wounds
After a long period of time
From a hard battle.

Someone I loved died today,
And I'm finally over it.
