Best Poems Written by Trix De Ruiter

Are You Still There

I see you sitting in your chair
 I ask by myself : Are you still there?
 I have known you once so strong
 Seeing you now looks so wrong
 In your face I see marks of pain
 Was your long journey in vain?
 Why can’t you smile anymore?
 I can’t open your closed door
 Looking in your empty eyes
 Once so alive and once so wise
 Only a body in a chair I see today
 The person I once knew, went away
