Gone... Poem by Edme Seraphina

The blood dripping at a systematic pace
Your death hurt me leaving an evident trace
My pupils dilated yet reflecting emptiness
My body engulfed with anxiety and stress
I'm drowning in the ocean, sinking deeper as time goes by,
Tears finding it's way no matter how hard I've tried to hold them back
My heart shredded into thin strands
And I have to see the coffin of people I love
Despite being under ghe ocean of my tears,
It's somehow etched to my mind; like a rough sketch but this one disorganised
The screams echo in my ears
The scenes replay in my mind
Your body ripped apart
Your skin torn and your red fine blood on its teeth
It hurts me to see you depart
You were there when I needed help
You were my messiah,
My legs when I couldn't stand upright,
But now you're gone
Far away, far far away
Wherever you are,
You're distant from me yet I feel your presence
Lingering in the air and I long to feel your touch
The feeling of our hands intertwined
Or even less, the spark when my palm meets your skin
I'm alone...
The corners of my mind are laced with our memories
But I know,
I'm too weak to wipe my tears
To agonised to stand upright
So how can I change a thing? ...
