Stranger <br /> <br />Sad eyes light up when we walk in <br />Aged lightning blue eyes search <br />For the love he lost <br /> <br /> <br />Rich in wealth <br />Poor in love <br />Rich in misery <br />Poor in happiness <br /> <br />He watched his wife go <br />And he was left behind <br />When were they coming for him? <br />He prayed it would be soon <br /> <br />He seemed happy on the outside <br />But on the inside he was already gone <br />Lost to a life full of death and despair <br />Soon his body would follow his soul <br /> <br />To a land of numbness <br />Others thought he was doing so well <br />But truly he was screaming for solitude 16 feet under the ground <br />He watched as the kids play <br /> <br />Laughing in their youthfulness <br />As he remembered those days <br />When his beloved was young and gorgeous <br />Bright pale face colored with light brown freckles <br /> <br />Red hair blowing in the wind <br />Light blue dress swimming around her knees <br />Grass stains on her red knees <br />Playful eyes wildly roaming, searching <br /> <br />He comes back to reality <br />To the sad lonely place he's in <br />The depressing state he is in sucks him back <br />He is lost in it forever<br /><br />tiffany fawcett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/stranger-48/
