Lake Of Black
Folder:
Friends/Family The wheel is turning, Time's gone by
It's been a year since you have died
An entire year since I've seen your face
An entire year time can't erase.
I've realized slowly I had a lot more to learn
I didn't know enough about you, as far as I'm concerned
But when you drowned in that lake of Black
A part of me died and it will never come back.
I'm waiting to cry but I know it won't come
I'll just sit here the 14th, completely numb.
I feel so foolish for reacting this way
Why can't I get over you, Robert Grey?
I shoved your memory into the back of my mind
Deciding I'd deal with it some other time
But I want you to know this; I confess
That I do not care for you any less
That's really sad, it makes me want to cry when I think about it. Death really is a horrible thing, though it is part of life... Well, I suppose that death isn't the horrible part of it, it's never seeing the person again... And never getting to say goodbye. And then you think about how different things could have been if that person was still here, and what they would have become if they were still alive.
I despise death, though I welcome it... It's a very confusing feeling, yes, but it's easily comprehendable. [Is that a word? Lol!]
But anyways, I like this poem. Alot. It makes me sad, though it is very good. <3
