A Piece of Me

A little piece of me died the same time as you

But now your gone and I dont know what to do

Cause your always on my mind, when I'm up an when I'm sleeping

Deep down, I know i'm just dreaming but

Everyday I get this eerie feeling, there was foul play

F*ck what the cops say, and everyone else too. I don't believe it.

"G's up h*es down" That's what you used to say

Haha forever in my heart, Our story's not over yet

Just saying, you told me so. But fate had other plans

Knowing our story. I wish we had more time together than apart but

Love is a battlefield sometimes you get burned or killed

Mourning you.. It's the hardest thing to do.

"No.!" I prayed and pleaded, please no not you but

Of course, you were taken from me. October 26th.

People everywhere, I couldn't even think. How could this be?

Questions. So many questions, but none are being answered.

Reality strikes, and everyones weeping while your permanently

Sleeping. "I love you" I whisper until you're forever dreaming.

This poem is called “A piece of me” . I created this poem to advocate for the death of a person who was very close to me and to somewhat show our story and express how I feel about his passing. I’m proud of this whole piece as an artist to this poem because it all came completely from the heart and it was a raw and emotional piece. I used a little rhythm to not only help me find the correct words to put my thought together but also to make it sound good to the reader or audience. By doing that I’m giving my poem a better chance of being heard and understood.
