Never See You Again

Chilled days and crimson ways- I brought forth fragility into your helpless ways- I shed tears of remorse since the day you left in vain, now you remain in grave, and my sanity has gone insane. Suicidal temptation filled your heart with strange fire, as you lifted up your sleeves and drown in death’s desire. Contemplation without alleviation gave me a severe scar that won’t heal, and now I am too broken and mangled to even want to feel. Forgiveness no more- Forevermore my soul washed to shore- A tide has engulfed my redemption, veins bleeding in apprehension. Contingency with consistency was born the day you chose to death, and I lay here and wonder the exact moment of your last breath. No mountain too steep, no reverie too deep, I can no longer sleep, but your bracelet I shall keep. Free me from the chains I have been an enabler from hell, I watched you decline as on your knees you always fell. Need me once more, I bleed in remorse, you landed on the floor, and took your life…. of course. Your credentials for leaving was as high as a constellation, and your beautiful creation, was wasted from temptation. Oh, Lord save me from this condemnation. A mighty Red-Tailed Hawk soars freely above the sky, I think of you and your love of birds and I start to cry. Forever is too long to never see you again- I'll be strong, you'll be my song, as I lost my sister… my best friend. March 6, 2017
