- I Was Too Young To Understand -

He let me see his scars, they was as deep as a bottomless ocean Every day his demons played to dance Like salt in the wounds, a pitiful truth The dark voices he heard in the shadows It was not an illusion, he had heard them for as long as he could remember A pain so unbearable and a horror that stuck in his soul He had no power to go in the hurricane's gust of wind The weight bowl was rocking ... not strong enough to handle it A deep and confidential conversation between him and me I could feel the powerlessness and the fear to say or do anything which could make the situation worse Was it enough to just be there ... show respect ? At the same time accept the powerlessness Reality had to exist somewhere It requires courage to prove weak He took his life two days later, abrupt and brutal A choice between the demons and the deep blue ocean The raindrops played a somber melody Where was the light when everything got dark ? In the days that followed, I cried ... until the well was dried I was too young to understand Rest in peace my friend 06/02/2020 Sun :) - A-L Andresen Copyright © All Rights Reserved
