For You

A dream I had a long time ago

 

No more today

Only tomorrow

No more light

Only darkness

Past forgotten

Hearts broken

Tear shed

And blood spilled

Sixteen years is nothing compared to

One moment

I am alone now

And you are

No where in sight

The world keeps spinning

Underneath me

Though soon I will be gone

There is pain

But it is nothing

Compared to

My aching heart

Horns honking

People stopping

People staring

Lights flashing

No one caring

Sirens in the background

My life flashing

Panic stricken

Followed by calm

No regrets

… But one

Even as I die

I hear your voice

Clearly in my head

Nothing matters

But the sweet ringing

Of you in my ears

Blood pours

And my heart slows

And it’s last beat

Was all for you.

Yes, I love the smooth flow too.
But the ending is so painful. It wounded my heart.
The person who comes to mind in our last moments is the one we love the most.

And it's last beat

Was all for you.

Very intense feelings behind your words. That's why this has turned out to be such a powerful poem.

[Just me.]

I really like this, it seems as if your speaking about somone you never confessed your feelings too, until it was to late...good write

[QuillandInkWhispers]

Wow!!! That was so sad. I could feel it while I was reading it at the same time. Great Job!!!

[Vicki Phipps]

Love lost is always gut wrenching....and you've expressed it well. Still, I can't wait to see you write about joyful things!

[~ Tex]

Another very expressive work. It is most interesting that you write from your dreams so often. Very expressive dreams.

[rachel D]
