heartbroken
somethings died
tears have shattered
silent cries
no where to turn
no where to go
just left to wallow alone
strangled breath
I must go on
the hurt inside is so far gone
hard to swallow
choking back pain
yesterdays memories aren't the same
every breath is like a fight
just another sleepless night
short lived distractions
never lasting satisfaction
the words cease to stop
forcing every last drop
of painful recollection
the heart and mind a disconnection
wanting another chance
holding onto hope
for one last dance
a metamorphosis of emotions
change rapidly at a dime
if only that spinning coin
could go back and change time

Just one suggestion. This reads as one long paragraph. I would break it up into stanza's. Makes it so much easier to read. Other than that this is a very well written poem.
Thanks for sharing this and thanks for entering it into this contest. -
I recently had to deal with losing a friend. it was truly hard for me to cope with. I thought that this was great, sad. LIke it was ripping up my heart. I can relate to this. I hope things worked out.
