I Die! The Sock written before I came out The Sock Written November 1998 Upon the Car rests, one shoe, Standing upon the hill memories flood past my minds eye, I remember the sound of metal, Memories of that tragic night, With tears in my eyes, Hurt of his UN -wiliness to accept, unable to understand, Memories of his words, Echoing in my ears, The cold look in his empty eyes, Unable to accept our love, She was my heart, my PASSION, Searched long for finely we found hope, Then like HELL breaking loose, Peace was gone, Trying to fight for her, Thorough his anger he pulled the revolver he carried, Funny you don’t hear the gun, It seems to be bigger then the moon, Blocks out all else in your vision, When it rips its way home, its more shock then pain, I heard her scream! When I came to, they were GONE. GONE, GONE! Holding my side, tears in my eyes, Blood seeping from me, my life slipping from me, Nothing matters anymore, Alone again, So Alone, Then I know not how I stood upon that hill, Bending down I picked up a sock, Standing up, I felt her hand in mine, Tears burst forth; it was like coming home, Both dead, peaces forever, No one could object, or hurt us again, No longer alone, Val Littlewolf Copyright ©2004 Val Littlewolf http://couragecampaign.org/page/community/post/valheike/C2tH http://couragecampaign.org/page/community/post/valheike/C2tH/commentary#comments Fri, 26 Jun 2009 11:34:38 PDT http://couragecampaign.org/page/community/post/valheike/C2tH User from Waukon, IA User from Waukon, IA 0 http://couragecampaign.org/page/community/comment_rss/C2tH/
