Despair

Devastated and ConfusedĀ
Sitting in a daze on top of my bed
Hearing agonising sounds of despair from downstairs!!
Dad came in and said `its time to go`..
What I was going to see I just didn't know...
I walked into the room
I saw the long think box
REALITY hit me
As a tree hit her!!
She was GONE
Taking so suddenly
So young and beautiful..
That didn't matter now!!
I rubbed my hand along her head, she was cold and pale she wasĀ
DEAD, DEAD, DEAD
I touched the clothes in which she wore, knowing I had wrapped them at Christmas, just a month before...
I walked towards the room
Where my eldest brother lay
Devastated and speechlessĀ
What were we supposed to say?
Maybe in the next life she will be my brothers wife

Very powerful and emotionally frank.
An excellent work.
Reminds me of Seamus Heaney's Mid-term Break, actually.
Keep on keeping on!
