Summary

I wrote this poem about my former best friend. For reasons I don’t wanna name, we had to drift apart and for years I believed it was because she replaced me but instead I hard to face the harsh truth that she was going thru abuse and tough decisions. Now I understand her, but this poem is from the perspective of the girl (me) who didn’t yet know the truth.

The way you left me makes me wonder,

Do trees feel how their leaves get walked over

After the wind scatters the dry ones away,

Into the end of a hot, Summer day?

Do fish grieve the mouthful,

That the dogs took from the lake?

Do killers know or understand,

That with each murder - they kill themselves?

Would the monsters still search for prey,

If they know why we hide?

Is darkness really dangerous,

Or does light simply know how to lie?

If I wasn't where I am or who l am,

If I was a planet and not a land,

Would you have chosen me instead?

If I was a hand and not a fist,

If I wasn't made of broken dreams,

Or didn't cry myself to sleep,

Would you still not have chosen me?

If I was dead, would you not grieve,

Or why do you act like you won't?

If I left before you did,

Would I not have won?

Would it not hurt any less,

Or be sweeter to forget?

Sharks don't know that not everything that bleeds

Is a meal designed to eat.

People like you don't know

Who to hurt and who to keep...

You don't hurt what you want to keep.

Silver's Second Chanceby CosmicChaos

Ashley: I enjoyed the story. It was a short one so the fast pace fit. I think something should be put in to show a time jump between paragraphs like a "****" just to make it easier to follow when we skip to the next day week or month. Over all a good read.
