I saw the light fade
Out of those bright blue eyes.
He never took them off of me.
The impact staggered us both
As that word pierced through my head,
"No!"
They took us away
Both to different places.
I knew something wasn't right.
The days didn't matter
For some time after that.
Still, they seem to drag on.
Your face shattered with fear
Is burned into my head.
Each movement sets off a tremor of memories.
He knew what you meant to me,
But still you're gone.....
How?
Could this never ending fever
Finally be beginning to take it's toll?
And why I ask,
Is the moon not as bright as I recall?

This was a really good poem and a nice read. Well penned and excellent flow, except, is there rape anywhere? The actual subject matter is rather confusing, in my opinion.
