Even After My Death

Even After My Death

A Poem by Aethelwyne

May 12th 2005

 

  He was running after me

    You might have already been dead

 

  I came to a dead end, he raised the axe

     Then everything went black

 

  I was damn well scared, but angry too

      No at him, after my head flew

           Not at my mother

            And not at you

 

               At me.

 

   I wanted to save you

    But there was nothing I could do

 

  I was sorry you were brought into this

      because you were my best freind

         You were true to me then

             I was sad for you

 

          Even after my death

 

     And we were inseprable

        Now here we are, many lives later

           My best freind again

 

      But this time you've hurt me

 

     Everytime I look at you

        A shot of pain goes through me

           If we are best freinds in a future life,

             What will happen when I remember then?

 

       The crying, the hurt

          I don't think it will ever again work

 

       And when this life is over

         I'll damn well be scared, but angry too

            Not after what I learned when my heart flew

                Not at my mother, and not at you

 

        At me, for letting myself trust you, and get hurt

                    

        Even after my death
