My Broken Day

I woke up normally Past the time everyone else had risen I had eaten breakfast Lunch Dinner Just like everyone else My brain had been focused on technology all day Cell phone Computer Television Like normal My day was normal just like always Until you told me the bad news Then my day shattered Broken Irreparable Damaged Now I can’t stop the abnormal tears Or the abnormal shudders that course through my body even as the heat is on full blast This is why I like normality But no matter how many times I build up my daily normality It always falls apart again And again And again.

I wrote this the same day my very good friend told me that she might be moving away. As you can see, I didn't take it too well but who would? I also just realized I write very sad, dark poems...Maybe I'll write something happy...maybe.
