Walk.. Side By Side Poem by Jennifer Panner

My suffering begins when you had to walk away
For the reasons i cant bear to say
The gift of pain is what is left
The most wonderful thing lies inside
A gray long sleve shirt
The smell fills the room
As the memorys come rushing back
im brought to my knees huddled in greef
With a knife in my heart i begin to realize
what you felt everyday when i had to walk away
At this point i think that our future is unknowable
and can not be destroyed from someone on the outside
but can be shattered from someone on the inside..
So when is it that the point that you know just give in give up
and just leave the rest of the world behinh
so that we as one can walk side by side
in this long uncontrolable moment in time
I realize what people on the outside must think
but the i stand frozen and place and turn around one more
to smile and say i dont care
in walk into the mist of time.
