I Died Too... Poem by Crystal Johnson

I Died Too...

Rating: 5.0


I watched the sunset pass me by
And I whispered your name into the sky
I couldn't take it so I closed my eyes
And screamed my last good-bye.

I try my hardest to move on
But we both know I'm not that strong
All these days passed seem so long
There's no point living if you're gone.

Sometimes I see you in my dreams
The depression is still haunting me
Without you here I cannot breath
It's so unfair you had to leave.

I take your picture wherever I go
But I hide it so that no-one knows
The hurting that I can't control
Is deep inside, taking it's toll.

I can't pretend this isn't real
I can't hide what I really feel
It's been so long but I miss you still
It's like these wounds will never heal.

You left me with a broken heart
You left me stranded in the dark
My entire world has fallen apart
I need to forget, but how do I start?

I tried so hard, but it's no use
This situation has me so confused
I want you to know that I don't blame you
But when you died part of me went too.

Strange, but you have found the way to heal - by crying your tears onto the paper, sharing with others the pain. I can't wait until you find the joy, and see what comes off your pen then! ! Wow! Scarlett

Great poem Crystal. It's so hard dealing with death. They same time heals..........but, I think it just numbs. Great job. Sincerely, Mary

Your poem is very sad. It makes me think of Poe's Annabelle Lee.
