Array ( [sid] => 9053 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Silence [time] => 2002-12-22 05:20:00 [hometext] => something to remember [bodytext] => I woke up early this morning
I stumbled out of bed
Made my way to the shower
Trying to clear my head

After a long hot shower
I finally feel awake
I went into the kitchen
Your breakfast I began to make

I made your favorite breakfast
Ham and eggs and coffee too
And I place them on the table
But now I don't know what to do

I call to you but you not here
The sounds travel through empty halls
Silent echoes of what was once
Now no one answers my calls

It’s been only a few days
Days that seem like a lifetime you see
Since I felt you warm embrace
Or seen the loving way you look at me

I lay my head down and begin to cry
I cannot stop the tears, this cant be
Why? Can’t someone tell me why?
That drunk driver took you away from me

Please dont drink and drive

Katherine Bethel

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©
