Gone

by Stephy   Dec 27, 2005


A talented musician
Hoping to be a rock star
Playing every hour, every day
Alone with his guitar

A superstar athlete
Following his dream
Practice after practice. game after game
One goal, two goals, three for the team

A innocent child
Who's life was suddenly taken
The driver lost control and a second later it was over
So many are left broken, this was never suppose to happen

Just another man
Who cheated on his wife
He had a family, he had kids
But he chose another life

A cancer victim
Who fought for years
She gave it everything she had
She flew away in peace, leaving us in tears

A good orthopedist
Here's a plane ticket and off you go
The red cross called, you have to move
When you'll return, we don't know

The musician, the athlete,
The child, the man,
The victim and the doctor too
Left one after the other leaving us to make it through

~ Not my best, but everyone mentionned in this poem are real, gone in different meanings of the word, and them leaving affected me directly, people I care about, or both....~
