No More Pain

With a heavy heart,And tear filled eyes

I watched your car,Pull out of our drive





I kept thinking to myself,She cant be gone

I wanted to see,Your brakelights come on



I hoped we would work,If we gave it time

Time didn't work,You didn't change your mind



Its to late now,But I plainly see

You are my life,My world to me



As I walk in our home,All around I see

Are memories of our life,And what used to be



Now its a house,I dont call it a home

I have just given up,I dont want to go on



With strong drink in hand,I see mistakes I made

But I must do this,I cant be afraid



I have lost my Love, My Lover,My best friend

Now I close my eyes,To never open them again



I have nothing to live for,My living is done

With shaking hand,I pick up the gun



The explosion is loud,It shatters the night

My pain is now gone,I've given up the fight

This poem is filled with emotion. A very good write. Although life can sometimes get us down, we must always try to be strong, positive, and optimistic.
