[hometext] => This is another poem I wrote after my sister Sooz committed suicide.
[bodytext] => You got flowers today... It wasn't your birthday... It wasn't your anniversary... It wasn't any special occasion... For some dumb reason we all gave you flowers today... You lied to me... You said, " you were a coward..." You said, "you could never take your own life..." But sister you grew balls... You got flowers today... You told him the truth... You said you'd kill yourself... If you ever lost him... So now you're gone... You got flowers today... You told me so many things... You shared secrets with me... You believed in me... But yet you had no faith in yourself... You got flowers today... Now you're nothing more than ashes on the grate... You've gone to a place unknown... So God if you happen to see my sister walk by... Tell her she was wrong... You got flowers today... All because you choose to selfishly go away... We cried... We pleaded... We begged... But still you choose not to stay... You're crazy... If you think were better off this way... You got flowers today... So now I sit alone... Wondering what you were thinking... Wondering what you thought you were lacking... I miss you so much... I love you still... You got flowers today... There was so much left unsaid... So much we were supposed to do... So many questions left unanswered... Now there's only my tears left to dry... You got flowers today... I know you'd always said you wanted a flower garden... You didn't have to kill yourself just to get a bouquet... Didn't you realize how much you'd hurt us? Do you even care? You got flowers today... You got flowers of death... Flowers of tears... Flowers of sadness... Flowers of anger... But at least you got you're STUPID flowers today...

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. ©
