Forever Gone
A Poem by Drama Child
FOREVER GONE
I didn't recognize the sound coming from my own body as my mouth hung in oval shape. Tears hailed down my cheeks. Speak................... Speak!! What is this sound vibrating from my chest? What is this flood upon my face? Speak.......................... God d****t! Speak!
My mind could only answer through my unrelenting wails in voice's place. My mind kept telling me through the heavy almond droplets, drenching my face. My mind was giving answers my heart begged to deny.... My mind was thinking truths. My heart wanted the lie. The tears are the sorrow, the eyes won't let go. The sound is the greatest pain you'll every know.
He is gone.
Not the "small-time" gone. Not the "see-you-later" gone. Not the "be-back-soon" gone.
It's forever gone.
The gone from your touch. The gone from your embrace. The gone from the smile that once stood upon your face.
Your body doesn't understand how to move on. Your heart can't make right this feeling of wrong. For the greatest love of your life...
He's forever gone.

Sad and Poignant... The emotional flooding of the emptiness apparent. The realization of the loss and the helplessness of your position to effect it.
Eventually, going on and realizing you are still alive...but, for now, only the pain, and even the guilt of being the survivor.
You have captured this very well.
Good Job Drama Child.
