Gone

Gone

A Poem by Starr

I sat with my hands wrapped around him
I stared at him
So cold and lifeless
He was barely there
Hardly any life fueling his body
I wanted him to breath again
Kiss me again
Hold me close and never let me go
One guy in a white coat pulls on my arm
"No!"
He calls for a lady and she tries to move me
I won't let go
I won't leave!
They keep trying and pulling
They are speaking but I can't hear them
Someone speaks to them and next they are signing
Telling me that I have to leave
I shake my head
"No!"
Someone else grabs me and my arm
They finally get me to let go
They sit me in a chair outside the room
They close the doors
The lights go out
I cry and cry and cry
They rush out and shake their heads
I shoot up out of gray chair and they try to grab me
I rush into the room
I see the monitor flat
I see him lifeless
I fall onto my knees
The floor is as cold as he is
I try scream
He can't be gone
He can't 
They grab my arm and pull me out
They tell me they have tried
I refuse to believe them
They lead me in and let me tell him goodbye
Even though he is gone
I kiss his cheek and walk out
Empty....
Only his hand holding mine
He smiles
I love him
He will never leave me
I jump....
We will never leave each other...

A simple and easy read but nonetheless heart-rending. I like how the few number of words you use each line reflects what the narrator is feeling, a feeling of emptiness now that her love is gone. Nicely done!

Thank you so much!
Very awesome read. I like how your writing flows together, to make me visualize everything that's going on. Many stories on here do that, and that's why most of the stories I read on here are good because you all are very talented and gifted, I visualized everything as I was reading it. Great writing. On to another topic. I have a website where I post my short stories, and blogs on. I also have ads on the website. I was wondering if you can go to my website, and click on any ad. you don't have to buy anything, I promise you won't get any viruses, all it is is google adsense on my website, and the more clicks on the ads, the more it helps grow my website. My website is bwlawson.com I appreciate it, that you would be taking part in helping my craft, business, product, and brand grow. Thank you!
