Reaching hands
Hoping hearts
Blood soaked eyes
The ache of war behind his smile
The ache of lose behind his laughter
The forever memory that keeps spinning behind his eyes
Playing over and over
His eyes on an eternal loop
The memories an endless shadow lurking behind
The eruption of grief
So sudden
So soon
The grief eats at his teeth
His smile once filled with life
Now filled with a burning hatred
The hatred burning through his scarred skin
His eyes once blooming with flowers of opportunities
Now wilting into a glazed over image
The indignity seeping in through his ears
His thoughts once optimistic and intriguing
Now listening to only embarrassment and anger
He stands before the memory of the future once upon a time story
Their hands placed on the other side
His shaking with all he is feeling
Grief
Hatred
Indignity
Anger
The grief
Like a thunder storm of bricks, pounding down upon his head
And all around him see the feathers to come
Yet he can't
He won't
The grief is too much
Too much
So, he stands before the memory of their time together
His eyes shedding tears
His hand begging for their comfort
Not knowing they are there
Never to know anything but this grief
This grief.
