Write a poem (or letter) about a turning point in your life 8 months, 3 weeks ago Letter to the Aftermath
MercuryEveryone in the inner circle seemed to assume I’d be sad when you passed
But I wasn’t.
If anything I was more upset to learn how much pity you received
While I was frozen.It doesn’t make sense does it?
The night of your death became the password and the key
to unlocking every single thing and door
That you walked me through.They never had pity for me like they do with you.
I kind wish they did, but I know they never will-
So I just stare beyond my window sill
And wait for you to admit it to my face
I would’ve gotten lost in the paint
But I was worried, that my bedframe would break
I’ve tried to understand you and it worked and I forgive you,
But the aftermath of your death was a tragedy for us both.Voting is closed
Mercury, dealing with the death of someone close to you can bring an onslaught of conflicting feelings. I don’t know what your relationship with this person was, but seeing that others treated you differently after has got to be hard to swallow. I am sorry that you have experienced this tragedy, but maybe it will help you learn who really matters. Thank you for sharing your experience!
