Destroyed

Gone were the days of old
where we laughed, cried and told
to love the winds of growth
to hear the chimes of gold.
It took you far away
and led you astray
and yet I simply wonder
if you had made a blunder.
Shrieks of pain outlawed
the clouds of change foresaw.
Dictated was your freedom
Forgone was your wisdom.
You became a husk
empty, mindless, weak.
The glimmer that was seen
Flickered, faltered and faded.
Broken
Shattered
Pierced
All descriptions of the heart
But what is worse, mon amie-
Not knowing, or not acting?
Reflection: This poem was written to reflect close friends who have drifted apart due to circumstances surrounding their family and how one sees the other have her spirit broken from life’s trials and turbulences. It places an emphasis on how a relationship can drift apart easily but at the same time provide a clarity to the situation each other is placed in.
