          I left my joy, six feet under
          and my pain I carry today
          one mistake; my life asunder
          all because I wished to stay.

              The mistake was made
              though not by myself
              as I prefer to claim,

              In all truth I see
              my own, just as her's
              we are both to blame.

          her's for drunken indulgence,
          mine for letting her drive away,
          and of my Love never since
          all because of that fateful day.


Ex Animo,
      Aaron

How sad!!!!! I'm so sorry for your loss, but you can't think it was your fault, things happen for a reason. As awful as they sometimes are.  Don't wish and wonder your life away about what coulda woulda shoulda happened or coulda been. An amazing, heartfelt write.  I hope to read more from you, this hit a note in my heart.

I've read a lot of love poems lately, but I've noticed that you do what no one else does...you don't blame the other for your "departure" or unhappiness. A very honest approach you took. ^^ Good job.

"In all truth I see
my own, just as her's
we are both to blame."

A very heartfelt poem. You are a fine poet here at pip! Until your next post...

Always,
Leah

It's never easy to lose someone
I've lost one so close too
I'm not gonna lie, it'll be hard the first couple of months
Just remain strong, don't give up on life
Thanks for sharing

I loved it Aaron!  Absolutely heartfelt.  What happened?  Is it true?  The poem that is.  Call me.  We can talk.

If we're told we're bad, that's the only idea we'll ever have. Maybe if we are surrounded by beauty someday we will become what we see.

woah...a bit cliched aaron.. , but im not saying its a bad poem- in fact its just another  take on the preventable and sad situation. "never drink and drive", weve all heard that, but ppl just dont learn do they? i hope that this was just a character write and not written out of personal experience. id hate knowing that this did in fact happen to a close friend of yours. good poem and thanks for sharing this with us

see the glass crack like a flower opening

It's a good thing to hear that it isn't a true write. You've done a very good job of capturing the emotions. I truly thought that this was from a personal stance.
I look forward to seeing many more.

Thanks for the read.
