FinallyA Poem by Natalie C
Lost days, counted by As the soul prays one last time Hoping to find its way Standing at the back of the line Where tears never reach The heart’s desire of being free Trapped in a world Between life and death Frantically gasping for one last breath Demons grab the very core of me Millions of eyes Turned away from the scene The brutal onslaught has begun Devouring a person already torn Just go on your way Don’t ever look back Life has flipped the coin As yet another angel falls Heaven’s grace Softly touching a face Heartlessly disfigured by time Forgiving my ultimate crime Carefully placing me down On now a grassy bed Closing the windows Allowing me to finally rest Inside this man made chest
Do not weep next to my tomb For a name etched on stone Doesn’t mean that I am home Deep within this grave Lies a body broken... Completely alone Decayed by time Hardship’s willing slave Silently faded away © 2008 Natalie CFeatured Review
