It's raining heavily in my heart,
Ever since we've been apart.
The sun no longer shines for me,
As I sit and stare at the wide open sea.
The sea that separates us by so many miles
The sea that once brought us so many smiles.
We used to sail the high seas together...
Enjoyed it both in the lightning and the thunder.
We'd sail around the islands so grand,
Never caring if we ever again touched land.
Until that fateful day, when I looked into your eyes..
As we both said our own silent goodbyes...
Ten years ago you went to your watery grave,
Every ounce of strength that day I gave,
I tried my best to save you from your death,
Now all I have today is great regret.
We should not have tempted fate that morn,
We should have stayed at home and watched the storm.
Today, all I hear is the thunder from within me,
As I think of you lying there under the sea.
I now sit all alone on the sea-shore,
Not daring to venture on a boat anymore.
Trying to shelter myself from my tears,
As I think of all the wasted years.
The years we could have still been together,
If only we had been as tough as leather.
Instead we both turned soft and opted to sail..
That day my entire body went pale.
Now, the sun no longer shines for me,
It's raining heavily in my heart, you see.

Oh Jenni,
this is heart breaking, written with the touch only you have. I can feel the sorrow and pain in this write.
You must tell me more about this event when you feel ready. I am ready to listen.
Hugs

Its a hard story to read let alone live death is always hard but living to only keep his memory is so much more some stories really don't have happy endings i know about stories i hope you raise your head high everyday and smile we have to live and that means moving on i was already ready for a life of being alone
lovely write

I have to agree with so many others...this is truly heartbreaking and I am sorry for your loss. Sometimes writing help but sometime brings truth and regrets into the light so we have to face them head on...You have so many shoulders here to cry on...once again I am so very sorry.

| This poem does pull the reader in. There is alot of emotion that comes through. A wave of sadness blankets the reader. Is this based on a true story? It reads like it is and if it is not, it is very convincing to the reader. If it is true, my condolences. I have a poem that was written based on the death of my first husband and finding new love through God. You might find it interesting to read. And again thanks for such kind comments for the poem you read of mine (Shaina). Your haikus are lovely too. |
