not knowing it was yours.
Your body was on the side of the road
a broken spirit on all fours.

I couldn't believe it was you,
the sight made me unable to breathe.
I listened to my heart break
knowing I had to leave.

Your body lay there mangled and torn
by some type of machine.
It left me wondering to myself,
all because of what I had seen.

Did you feel it before death
or did you feel nothing at all?
I'd rather pretend you didn't,
to make up for what I saw.

Everyone will see you,
but noone seems to care.
They choose to keep on living,
with no regrets, and it isn't fair.

But I will always remember you
no matter how much pain i have to keep.
Others just see another dead animal
but I see your beauty, and it makes me weep.

A fluid poem with many vivid images; good work.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
