How do I Cope?
How is to be understood, that I accept this sudden/permanent decision
My soul would cry aloud one thousand tears if it could, and sing to the ears of intervention.
Tainted emotion…
runs through this troubled mind of fear and sharpening pain.
Such agony be-stowed on me… by me, as I fail to realize the purpose of the life/death game.
What meaning must I visualize to cope and understand?
The many ways life differs and why…
I can no longer see her smile and call on demand.
Who makes such rash decisions?
conjure a public hearing for all to see,
I must speak to this decision maker… who took something
so PRECIOUS from me.
Must I barter with these forces, to keep shadowed hope alive?
Or must I swindle an unlimited amount of devotion to bring this love back…into my life?
How does one make peace with such decisions, and swallow this unbearable pain?
How does one teach comfort towards unspeakable mentions of what is OBVIOUSLY … someone else has gained?
This poem is just outstanding. Somewhere most of us have been... and all of us will be (again). The emotion is raw, the flow is flawless, and the visuals are incredible.
