Drew back the curtains,
To see there was no sun,
In,
The sky,

Only a void, a darkness,
Nothing had been left to chance,
I don’t think anyone,
But me,
Survived,

Why do we have to die,
Why did you bleed the whole world dry,
Why the hell did you have to leave it,
This,
Way,

You know you haven’t told me why,
I don’t think you wanna make me cry,
You know we need the truth,
Not,
Lies, a,

Dead deformed body,
Festering decomposing,
I smell the stench,
And I,
Cry,

What was it that I bought into,
I think that I have been too,
Blind to see what I,
Always,
Knew,

Why do we have to ***** die,
Why did you make the whole world cry,
Why the hell did you have to leave it,
This,
Way,

You think that you’re too high,
You know you’ve had your pie,
And eaten it too,
Night, falls,

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. Â©
