[Today for you, tomorrow for me]: 256.Poetry.The Blood Red Reminder
Rating: 0.00
It lays there upon the cold, hard ground
It seems to be mocking me
With its deep red color
Reminding me of business left unfinished
Because of my cowardice
It seems to mock me it that way too
For who could throw something away so . . .
Wonderful,
Something so . . .
Incredibly flawless
A sound as light as a dove's departure
And yet as dark as a murder's mind
The sound is meant to be soft,
Impossible to hear
And yet it rings out like a canyon's empty echo of anguish
"Do you know how much you hurt me?" I hear him whisper
Silently I cry, and reach out to touch him
And remembering I drop my hand hopelessly
I let out a small whisper of anguish and agony
"I'm sorry, so unbelievably sorry."
He does not hear
Maybe he just doesn't care anymore
I wonder sadly if anyone will accept my apology
I just want someone, anyone, to know that I am truly sorry
For what I did
He does not look at me
Who can blame him?
I have hurt him with my actions
I have caused him the greatest pain
I have betrayed him
Lying on the ground
I feel so much guilt
I hurt more than ever
I have betrayed so many
Knowing this kills me inside
Who chose suicide
To roam Earth forever
And watch those you love hurt
To feel the pain you caused them
And not be able to comfort them
You are no longer living
You are an eternally damned spirit
Forced to feel all the pain you have caused
To be forever aware
To never be allowed the peaceful release death brings
