that day

Trapped inside my poetry,
written with a ball-point pen.
re-writing the last day we spoke
"I'm sorry I love you"
"then why?"
"we just shouldn't be together"
then my world turned into a blur
and tears streamed down my eyes
your words stitched "X"s in my heart
I walked slowly to find my father in glee
with piercing words that made my brain pound
"I'm engaged"
Just the thought of love made me scream,
Though it had been summer my parallel universe
was Grey and the birds flew home as my mouth opened wide
and a screech escaped my mis-formed  lips.
Every song on the radio seemed to involve love,
every thought in my mind was your precious voice
echoing over and over 'i love you'

the simplest words made me weep
the thought of your love made me weak.

  • This is a very touching poem. But I don't know which prompt you were going for and also which family member you were after. So please let me know before the contest ends or I will have to delete it....
