Just Another Day
How can today be just another day,
I wake up and the sun hides behind dark gray,
Clouds smother the sunlight,
Seeming appropriate for the occasion.
But the day continues on as if nothing has happened.
I see smiling laughing faces,
Their mockery is unbeknownst to themselves,
My pain is an invisible boundary,
Separating my mind from my body.
How could they know that on this very day,
The flowers in bloom died and wilted away.
The storm that is myself exploded in rage,
My fists pounded the earth for the first time that day.
Rage and pain emanated like lightening splitting the sky,
I screamed and my soul tore in half - The day that you died.
