Struck by lightning 'Revised edition'

Contributed by randyjohnson on Saturday, 24th June 2006 @ 09:40:26 AM in AEST
Topic: AngryPoetry

My heart was broken into a million pieces and it can never be repaired.
When I learned that my son was struck by lightning, I was really scared.
Every night I cry myself to sleep.
I'm in great pain and people pity me when they see me weep.
Just three years ago I lost my beloved bride.
My son was all I had left but sadly he also died.
People tell me that I should be able to go on.
Would they be able to say that if their families were gone?
When they took my son to the emergency room, they said it was very bad.
Now as I sit by his grave, the bitterness has nearly driven me mad.
After I lost my family, I went into a shell.
Another day on Earth is like a day in hell.
If you have a family that you love dearly that is really great.
But if you lose them, don't become like me because my heart is consumed by hate.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
