a time my world changed v.2

I didn't see it in your eyes.
Neither did he
but, she did.

Please don't be mad.
It would have happened eventually
she just couldn't wait till the weekend was over.

I remember that day so clearly.
the day, you turned into
a pile of bones and fur,

I think about you everyday.
A reminder dangling from my neck
a jingling so loud and crisp.

The luckiest day of the century
led to tears
and shaking shoulders.

I saw something in your eyes that day
A four letter word.
HELP

You fought.
Drawing away from the syringe,
like you knew.

You laid there, still warm
eyes empty, staring
refusing to close.

  1. That is so sad- but a good topic. It is very easy for people to relate to.
