Nina

Nina

A Poem by RJ
"

A song for my less than loyal but loved girlfriend who died in 2008. I miss you Nina, and I'll see you again someday.

"

 

Somewhere farther in the past I’m falling

I still need to find you there

Acts committed we might call appalling

Seems we just weren’t meant to be

 

F**k your apathy

It’s afterlife fidelity

No end in sight to see

I’m chained to my devotion.

 

The past that I can’t mend

Is echoed by your bitter end

The thought of you can rip

My heart and mind to pieces

 

Now, I’m stuck outside of time

Just like the day you died

I’m trapped by lies I can’t remember

Wonder what was going through your mind

The day you took your life

Now I’m trapped by lies I can’t remember

 

It’s been one year since you’re gone, I’m haunted

By shadows left behind

Took the life I thought I had and wanted

Then you threw it out for me

 

So many actions still unclear

and nights alone still filled with fear

The only thing you’d left to hear

Was the sound of death’s ovation

Is it wrong to say, "I love the pain"? granted I know there was a great deeper emotion and feeling, but the pain comes across so well that it is a near stab. I liked this.
