Where did you go Margo

Where did you go Margo

A Poem by Darby Rae
"

Margo is the child version of myself umm yeah that's is

"

Where did you go Margo?

What happened to the things you loved?

Hershey kisses and crème pies

Left without a dear goodbye

Child's play long since gone

Taken with sweet summer songs

 

Margo what happened?

Where’s the little girl I once so loved?

You molded yourself into your friends

And lost everything in the end

Now you’re just not yourself

But an empty shell and nothing else

 

Margo, my child, I miss you so

I just can’t seem to let you go

Your heart like a balloon

Has escaped into the sky

And left this frame of me

With guilt almost deep enough

To let me die

 

My sweet Margo, not long ago I began to think

What might have become of you

If you had the chance to grow

But in the light of my failure

to keep you on the ground

It seems all your dreams have gone up

and released in a ball of smoke

 

Margo love, now that you’re gone

How do you expect for me to get along?

Without you things are low and cold

Everything is much to slow

I’m in the dark and I can’t escape

For now dear Margo, this is our fate

 

Margo you took the key

You’re the only one

who can look inside me

after you departed

I’m just a breathing corpse

With a heart guarded by an empty keyhole

 

My fair Margo, we have lost our minds

Nothing changes, nothing rhythms

I’m driven mad looking for you

As you sink deeper away from my view

I’m sure you don’t know what you’re doing

But this young tragedy will do the killing
