Death, The Enemy

When Everything Comes Crashing Down

By Harydo NeonPublished 7 years ago 2 min read

Peace, serenity and joy, so much joy than I can remember

Ever since the day I met you

I knew you'll be the one to say I do

Loving you changed my past and shaped my future

I wouldn't have tied the knot with another

But death couldn't stand so much joy and happiness

Its jealousy raged into our lives like a raging dragon

Distorted everything we've built and tossed our love into the dungeon

My world is now torn apart, in shreds and disoriented

Why you? Why did death fall in love with you?

Why not me instead? Rather I stand alone now, confused

How could I move on without you, My Lady?

What about the beautiful places yet to be explored by we?

Or the chicken casserole you promise me for our upcoming anniversary?

Could this be the end of the line for me?

Who would give me hope now that you're gone?

Who would back me up when an idea comes on?

My No 1 fan, My Love, My Lady gone in a flash

But I still do love you even more, each passing day

I dream every day of the times we shared

Lost in thought, lost in shreds of the past

I cannot move on without you, believe me I have tried

You hunt me like a ghost, day and night

Here and there, I see you virtually everywhere

You understood my personality more than anyone

I had a hard time even understanding myself

Please I beg of you, you have to let me go

Or am I the one who has held on for too long?

The fact that you are no more is still a nightmare

I hope to soon wake up from

I play our records and love messages everyday

10, 11, maybe 15 times, auto replay

My world, burnt and torn

In other words, my world has become an armageddon

I try to go out, met new people, fall in love again

But none can replace you, they are all the same

I was desperate to love another, just to get my mind off you

But now I know it is practically impossible

No one else understands my world like you did

You turned my world, once dry and desolate

Into a place of soothing peace and harmony

But now you have had the ultimate kiss with death

My world crumbles down in shreds

My Lady, My Queen, You're irreplaceable so it seems

You want me to move on with another? I have tried

It's over, I am off to the seminary to become a priest
