Misunderstood

Lost
She’s just gone, dead,
her hearts no longer beating red.
When everything went wrong you stayed strong.
You were her added piece to the puzzle,
what made each day for her no longer a struggle.

You saw something in her.
When she tried to swim, you were the only one
who helped her stay afloat.
You stopped the waves from crashing.
Together the two of you were a steady boat.

And then you were gone.
She was left alone, closed eyes, just trying to hold on hope.
She almost instantly lost sight,
to many long restless nights.
Her happy soul was slowly sinking
appearing to be lost in a constant daydream.
Stuck in the thoughts of the past,
What could have been?
What should have been?

What once seemed perfect turned into a circus.
Drag on the pipe,
Her facial expressions are wiped away.
No one offers anything to say.

Struggling to pay rent,
Countless minutes spent wishing to get swiped away by the current.
Screaming inside,
Tears flowing like a river outside.
Arms spread wide, asking why?

Crawls deeper within
No longer holding the desire to win or feel the rain on her skin.
Just going to hide away till the sun sets at the end of the day.
Doesn’t even hold the energy to pray.

Eyes closed, her soul doesn’t know which way to go.
It starts to snow,
Angles fly down taking her to the place she wants to go.
She was never willing to let you go.
