Anna

Anna

A Poem by Kira Jaye
"

My friend Anna passed in a mo-ped accident this past sunday.... I write to mourn.

"
You
With your eyes screaming for help
your voice too meek to ask
your manner too humble to impose
your smile dancing on your lips
like a bright and glorious star
You
with your wind-chime laugh
and so many kind words
in your mouth and on your tongue
You
who would never wish pain
upon a single soul
no matter what they had done
You
who cried only in shadows
so the others didn't feel your pain
who watched over and cared for those
who no one else would bother with
You
who thought you were too short
or too fat
because of venom laced lies from a 
jealous teenage boy,
You 
who never failed to see the good
inside the vilest of things
or push aside feelings for the sake
of someone else who was hurting
You Are Gone.
swept away by a just and mysterious hand
for no obvious reason, something man
cannot know. And all we know is
it hurts to not have you here
to leave all the broken thoughts unsaid
to linger in the empty places
without a shoulder to dampen with tears
to always wonder why, and never know for sure
what it's like where you are.
To long to see your smile, if only one more time
just to remind you how beautiful you are
and tear the pain you once felt from the reaches
of your mind.
You Are Gone,
As is your pain.
No longer will you feel the cruel hand
of depression on your throat
begging for your breaths as 
you refuse and carry on anyway
No longer will you wonder what you did wrong
and cry to seemingly no one,
save a soul with no reward,
or scraping your knees, bleed.
Rest in the just arms that 
rid your soul of mortal things
and find 
peace while we grieve
just a little bit 
longer.
