RedRavenPoems

Tears well within eyes, swirling yet refusing to fall.

The cries stiffled in a throat shut tight.

Mind screaming to let it go, but body locked.

Suffering in unending torment, no end in sight.

The pain circles ever closer to your heart

A needle that pierces so neatly

Unseen in the darkness, yet felt so sharply.

All comes from the sight that lays before you.

The struggle that life now throws your way.

One that brings reality crashing home.

One you love struggling on

Fighting to survive, you cannot help, it feels wrong.

All you can do is sit and watch

As minutes slip by, taking them along.

Until body grows cold, life now gone.

Then only the memory with you shall live on.
