Poems
Mar 2014
6:14
The following morn I was awoken
To find our bond forever broken
6:14 your heart stopped cold
Made weeping children of even the bold
Picture by picture, frame by frame
I cried in agony but death held claim
Over your life, and I screamed in dismay
"It just can't be your final day"
But realization dawned, slowly at first
Crying was pointless, but denial was worse
I could act as a child and pretend you weren't gone
But at 6:14, you died on that lawn
Then I saw the picture, the smashed twisted tomb
And a sickening silence fell over my room
I almost fell ill, I could not speak
I had just laughed with you the very same week
Yet there it was, clear on the screen
6:14, she died at the scene
Now emptiness haunts me yet I'm never alone
I feel you around me, all the way to the bone
And though I'm cold, your love makes me warm
I know you'll take me through the eye of the storm
Though I know your voice will haunt me at night
I can count on your memory to hold me tight
My guardian angel now flies high above
Showering me with her praise and love
And I miss her more than she could know
But I trust that never again will she go.
Death isn't easy, but I'll come to grips
When she puts her finger to my lips
So my gaze will be calm at the clock on the screen
Even when it reads 6:14.
