Consequence


I remember you, do you remember me? I meant so much to you as you did to me We would laugh all the time, could tell you anything Memories we’ve built throughout the years and New Years we’ll Ring I can see those days as if they were yesterday Parties, family, laughter, or should I say The best days of my life was always spending that time I traveled from afar, and never once complained This is who I am, for my family I’ll catch a plane I went overseas to complete my mission Came back because I missed you You were my heart just like Aunt, you filled up that space and now you tear it apart? I can’t explain the feeling that’s running thru my veins, all I do is replay What happened? I spoke the truth? I didn’t hurt you, you chose to choose There’s no missed call or even a message I can’t believe you are really confessing Not in words but actions, you’re telling me you died; this is just one of the facets This is confusion, where does it end? You can’t continue to pretend I tell myself its ok, but seen a picture and seen it remains The answer to your questions is one door away Be a man and stand tall, cause I’m a woman and I won’t fall I’ve been thru worse, this is a hill You’re my family, and for you I will But if this is the way it has to be Then always remember I won’t be the one to plea

this poem gives an in depth look of what happen one makes poor choices or intent to hurt there are consequences for ones action as you pointed it out "Be a man and stand tall, cause I’m a woman and I won’t fall" is a bad ass line, it gives the reader a clear understanding of who you are as a person great job with this descriptive poem
