tears are cried
as the sun turns DARK
a waterfall begins
pristine within the heart
a memory never fades
as itz etched in stone
with every new day
life is still at home
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
turn the clock back
can be such a hard task
why not take the time
to answer questions asked
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mortality is a given to humanity
flesh and bones; the temple of sanctuary
life is a cycle
measured through a block of time
awarded to each member of every species
upon expiration; emotions are left for the living
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
tears are cried
as the DARKness turns to light
another shining moment
will soon take flight
loss of life: no DARK tears prompt 2~ lose of a loved one. whether it be family, friends, bf/gf, anything.

written on august 5, 2005 at 11:35pm...just about a couple of hours after receiving the news of the death of a very close friend. i was only two states away from seeing her. she had cancer which was diagnosed in late may this year. she told me as soon as she found out. two days after her news, my grandmother had died. i was more prepared for her death as she was in and out of the hospital with many surgeries. my grandmother weighed only 87 pounds the last time she was hospitalized. she didn't recognize me as she thought i was part of the medical staff; it was tough to take. my friend was given three months to live. she died very early august 2005. this poem is dedicated to them both.
