What Life

What Life

A Poem by Xander West

"What Life"

 

What life is there yet to breathe,

When all you love and all you adore,

Were snatched away, taken from me.

 

To walk through life collecting pieces,

Of a heart shattered and torn apart,

All things gray as dust, all joy ceases.

 

What left in life is there to witness

When all you desire, all you ever needed,

 Lays buried beneath, lying in stillness.

 

To welcome death with open arms,

To hope to see the end, to start over anew,

Walking into danger, not caring of harm.

 

What life can a man with no soul expect,

 For mine died, carried away with her heart,

Fate was incorrect, our love was perfect
