"peacefully while sleeping"
the words ring in my ears
as the shock grabbed me by the throat,
choking back all emotion,
my mind,
broken.
my heart,
torn.
fighting back the tears,
holding at bay the grief,
just to get through the day.
when safe at home
with the ones I cherish most,
the floods will come.
there I shall drown.
slowly in salty tears of sorrow,
for only they could rescue me.
