Endings

Andrea Gomez 1988 (Tulsa)



Staring at the wall all alone in an empty room.
Thoughts racing through my mind, wondering why the saddest word is goodbye, wondering if it's true.
My heart beats sporadically
My eyes are swollen from my tears, hands trembling, memories of you run through my head, The laughter, the tears have all come to an end.
So many weary feelings of emptiness your heart that once pounded so beautifully has too.
The death of a loved one is a mystery too powerful or emotional for words to capture.
