And Life is Over

And Life is Over

A Poem by Liz Alexander

 

And life is over
My world came crashing down
When I got the news
……Yesterday
At first I didn’t believe it
Really happened
In shock
Well maybe I still am
Some part of me
Still thinks him going to walk
In the door how he always does
But no it true
That struck me when
I saw my friends at lunch
All in tears
That day we all sat around
And comfort each other
I walked around in the daze
For the rest of the day
It took all the effort to do work
Nothing seemed really
……..Anymore
It happened so fast
The world crashing down
He was fine the day before
We had all seen him
He had two stinking weeks before
He could graduate
All my friends are hurting
He had a future and family
How can death happen so fast?
That no one can see it
It all makes you wonder
He is now a black rose
His time has past
But the question why then
He was so happy that day
What could have happened to cause that?
No one knows for sure
He just collapsed
I will never look at life
The same way again
Time can stop at anytime
For your life to end
It heart breaking
Enough to put someone over
The edge
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
All these people
Their rumors to him
Everyone thinks different things and it
Hurts the loved ones
Some people laugh at it
Like it some cruel joke
No it really
Everything happened
When you laugh at some death
You are causing one of their loved one more pain
Don’t ever think you can pass people by
The world becomes a has
When you lose some one
And it can happen in an instant
…….And life is over

Wow. What a poem. It's so emotional and raw. It tore my heart up as I read it. The pain you were feeling is so obvious as I read. And the statements in green really make the emotions stand out. This is so moving.

This brought tears to my eyes and I found myself shedding silent tears.. What a write!!! You have brought forth truth, feelings, pain, and moments of unrest on what we as people react to any kind of unpleasent news.. Well done my friend...
