HE WAS GONE
“SIR JOHN” she cried
I watched tears well up in her eyes
She dropped to the ground
That chair wasn’t helping
Legs apart
Hand holding her chest almost she wanted to rip it out her heart
She didn’t need it anymore
Realization slapped her in the face
HARD
And the dam broke.
She cried
Yes she did
Like the nickname I gave her – baby
Just like one she cried
And my eyes understood the assignment
And tears burst out
I wasn’t crying because I knew the now late man
But for how my heart broke
SHATTERED
For her
Never had I seen her cry
Not such tears
Happy ones sure
but sadness and loss were a different level
like the titanic my heart crashed
it crumbled under the weight of her pain
In that moment I wanted to rip all the pain out of her heart
I tried
But there was no saving a loss is a loss
and on that fateful night ...
he left
alongside a piece of her heart .
