When Goodbye Means Forever

The shadows dance on the walls,
Replaying the past year of our lives.
I swear I heard your voice,
Calling my name,
I’m hearing ghosts tonight.

I’m closing my eyes,
Just to feel closer to you.
Your smile, your laugh,
It all seems so real.
And now the memories haunt me.

I still see you in my sleep,
Whispering in my ear,
Tormenting me.
Why did you leave me here alone?
I miss you so bad.

With everyday it becomes harder,
To live without you.
In a perfect world,
You’d be alive,
Standing by my side.

Your smile, you laugh,
It all seems so real in my dreams.
But now I open my eyes,
Just to see that nothing’s changed,
You’re still lying in your grave.

Please tell me what you think

    The ending shocked me
    I dread what you are feeling
    I asume you are writing from life

    It is almost too much to think upon
    I felt your words but not untill the end

    I love this part. Solemnity at it's best.
    I really like this poem, but I think you could get a little more out of it. All the way through I thought it was a lovely poem about the sadness of a breakup. Not until the last line did I understand that this was death that separated you. With some stronger words here and there and some foreshadowing, I believe this could be more powerful and exude the true emotion this caused you to feel.
