Pierced Heart, by Cedric

Pierced Heart by Cedric Lim
Losing a loved one is never easy...
this post is dedicated to everyone who has lost a love one...
especially to the 32 familes of the school massacre...
one heart goes out to all...
reaching over to your side of the bed
checking in and making sure you're asleep
making a call to check if you're coming home for dinner
coming through the door complaining about my boss

grasping the hands that aren't there
cooking for two as i eat alone
the operator tells me the number's not in use
my voice echos in the empty house

hugging my knees, imaginary embrace
the food's gone cold, i can't take a bite
the dial tone's flat, your silent voice
the waves hit back, lying flat against the wall

i'm lost and distraught
i'm hungry and tired
i'm weak and weary
the tears just keep flowing

If only there's a way to take the pain away
i'll gladly accept your pain instead
i'll pierce my heart and bleed for you
just to see that smile on you

the day will come when i'll pass away
i pray and hope i'll be remembered someway
ashes to ashes, dust to dust
here i come, back home at last





I cried when I read this poem that my friend wrote...
He dedicated it to me.. too....
Just when I thought nobody understood how I felt...

There's just nobody there... you know?


*cries*
