Something So Simple

Gentle weeping,
Easing the way I morn you,
So warming and temperate…
Yet still I am here alone and stressed.

Silent sorrow,
Lifting my chin and frowning my brow,
Thinking of where you might be…
Somewhere with sunshine I hope.

Drunken depression,
Making me feel like life is all good,
I sip on my glass and take the next dance…
The one time you’re dancing with me.

Going  Away,
Is something so simple,
I wish I can join you someday…
But I’ll hurt everyone like you did.

This is dedicated to my friend Kareem. RIP bro.

      thank you

      I'm glad that you enjoyed this piece, this has been the first poem that I posted on this site in over a year, and i figured that it would be the perfect tribute to my late friend. Thank you for the comment and I hope that you enjoy judging your contest.
