Shut Out (an old poem mixed in, so don't expect to be impressed; or even mildly entertai

I remember the nights,
The times we were close,
Savoring the memories,
The love that arose,

Happiness was fleeting,
Laughter was vain,
Off again,
Increase my pain,

Left out in the cold,
Locked out in the rain,
The wind lashing at me,
No hand to hold,
Drowned in confusion,
Lost in my thoughts,
Brimming with nothing,
But tears that you brought,

I won't say I love you,
I won’t say I'm hurt,
I can laugh it off, really,
I'm not the only one you'll desert

I'm falling I'm slipping,
Why must you watch?
I can't find my place now,
Cowering in my notch

Left out in the cold,
Locked out in the rain,
The wind lashing at me,
No hand to hold,
Drowned in confusion,
Lost in my thoughts,
Brimming with nothing,
But tears that you brought,


Why'd you leave,
Just tell me why,
Your last words were,
Goodbye.

    Hugs!!! Life is all about entrances and exits. This time it was your sisters time to exit stage left. Hugs, I don't know whether she dies or whether she just left one day, but I promise you will see her again one day and the friendship will continue! Hugs, thankyou for entering my contest, good luck!
