Hello darkness my old friend .
I come to talk with you again
Because a vision slowly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence

Dead silence , swaying trees and falling leaves . Each step the sound of the crushing twigs echoes in the silent night . Brown eyes and low howls . Filthy smells and wet grass . Void emotion also  dead inside . Among the dead but a soul inside

Kneeling , tears streams down my face. What's it gonna take

1 year ?

2 decades ?

A century?

My thin dehydrated fingers touch the engraved words . My vision is blurry and my body shivers from the unfortunate weather

Is it true ?

Of course its true I'm on his grave yard right now . A swallow a sob which was about to wreck my whole body . It was never suppose to be like this . I curse everything around me , denied happiness by the unbeatable . Silent torture creeping in

This is not how it shouldn't end

This is not how he shouldn't have end

Yesterday I lost loved ones, today I  lose again. How many people should one lose at a time .

Haven't I suffered  enough?

Did I not repay the unknown dept I had cost?

Am I ever gonna see the light ?

Am I ever gone be any bright?

I sniff one more time and wipe my ocean eyes

        Beloved brother and son

My lips quiver . Again?

I look up the heavens seeking answers.

On restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my  collar to the cold lamp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence

Thunder roars , trees sway. Lightning strikes and wolfs howl . I place the flowers on their graves . I  didn't even check what type of flowers I took

Daisy's ?

Roses ?

Violets ?

Sunflower? I chuckle at my own joke but it fades away quickly as soon as the idea came bye

                       1994-2016
        Beloved daughter and sister

Theres a picture . A picture of her gorgeous face while she smiles at the camera I remember this day like yesterday she was so happy .

"C'mon Nessa chill let's take pictures its only once in a life time thingy "

I snort

"You think?" She pouts at me , giving me that puppy look with those big green eyes .

"Oh No don't you give me that look Miss"

She pouts

"Is it working then"

I sigh , I can't believe I'm caving in
