This is a Poem Relating to my friend death of her aunt

“Acid Rain”

Written by: Kaleb G.Berry

 

 

Is it just me, or is life starting to shake my soul harder?

I can’t compare it.

Is it the hate, and anger, or am I just worried?

Is it the crazed flashbacks of memories I once shared with my love?

Can it be the agony my dad left me to pick up?

These hardships have no sympathy.

Bad things happen, and hearts get broken.

Dreams are stressed until they all become extinct.

I am taking a breath as I start to see her cry.

As if I am dying in front of her eyes.

Death had come to someone in her family.

Someone she loved.

Bitter it is, to think reality comes so damn fast.

I start to breath heavy, and my thoughts starts to twine.

When will our tears end?

I kept wondering, and thinking and one day.

Soon

It will be calm and we can all rest from evil.

I whispered to her and took another hint of air.

My thinking had stopped me from saying it again.

Then so, it became clear, and I spoke to her with a calming voice.

“As if it were raining today, this water would wash away all your pain. Make what you wish your dream, and then see it in something that won’t bring you down to your knees. Feel her in your heart then this life won’t tear you apart. Think of it this way, I’ll promise you everything will be ok.”

The hug I gave helped her come to senses.

Now I am walking down the sidewalk, eye shadowing her presence as I turn my head.

The eerie feeling in my heart, soul and mind, for once all came as one.

I took those words from the earth and made it my own.

Although, I can feel it will rain like this for days; it washing both our pain away.

I tucked my hands in my pockets and turned my head forward.

Feeling my heart beat harder, I wondered.

Is it me or is life starting to shake her soul harder than mine?

[Coyote Poetry]

A powerful poem. Death of someone special in a life can't be fixed. All we can do is be a friend and listen when needed. You described a very sad situation. Death leave many with sad hearts and take some people a while to understand. A excellent poem.
