The Death of Me

by
Johnnae Roberts

Bittersweet death
Set me free
why so sad?
Who knew the death of me hurt so bad

The death came as I knew it would
A fist hit me
A sudden breath of taunting air
The dream’s over, the dream’s over
Reality peeks its nonchalant head
The death of me hurt so bad

I expected the worst
But what does that mean?
The pain takes over me
The death of me hurts so bad

He said goodbye-
No longer a part of me
Never will be a we
This final stand was the death of me

Death was bittersweet
I see we:
Me and he will never be-
Again; the tears have fallen
I’m done with death
The death of me is past.
