The Phone Call That Destroyed Me

Out of nowhere I received A call that brought me to my knees Making me turn weak and shake The news was more than I could take It was shocking and unreal There was nothing I could feel Going numb and frozen still I couldn't speak I lost my will To control any emotions Each one of my body functions Just shut down and left me in The worst kind of sad condition That I've never felt before I finally fell to the floor As the shock of what I heard Kept repeating word for word Over and over it just played My heart felt like it was slayed Tortured knowing you wont be Making memories with me Since you were taken so fast How long will this heart pain last I can't replace what you have meant Why did that fatal incident Take away my universe This tortures getting so much worse Waking up without you near There is nothing to compare What I'm about to go through Without days of having you In my life to love and hold My whole worlds about to fold And crumble into tiny pieces Until my life finally ceases Disappearing into nothing I can't survive without your loving

Wonderfully emotional it is beautifully sad, tragically meaningful i hope everything is ok with you my friend someone as special as you wrote about will not be easy to get through with their loss from ones life. they say time heals all wounds but that is so not true, i know for a fact but you will hold that love in your heart forever and in this way they never will truely go away. cheri

Very emotional. Nice job capturing details, Robin. Sorry about the pain you're going through if this is true.

Is this fiction or or fact, Sweet Pea? Did you yourself receive such a phone call? I'm sorry if this poem is a true part of your life. These new poems of yours are being written with a great deal of intensity, which is both wonderful and worrisome, simultaneously. Great that you have such intensity in you, but I worry that you may be hurting, and I can't stand the thought of my dear friend hurting. Have to run right now but will be back soon and reading more of your new pieces <3 ~ Chan
