Trick & Treat

poem by: Suzie Lemons
Written on Dec 05, 2016

And within seconds her
world shattered,
it became upside down.
Everything she knew turned
Against her,
and the person she
relied on was no
longer beside her.

She’s been stranded in
this moment of time
for weeks and it’s
only getting worse.
She cries for help
but he doesn’t listen.
She yearns his attention
whilst he focuses on
someone else.

He’s happier now, and
I just want to die.
I feel sad, I am
Sad,
I don’t want to 
Be sad.

I can only sit 
back and witness her
destruction in hope it
turns into something beautiful.

The cuts in-between her 
thighs say it all
really.
Waking up and going
to bed drunk is
Her new hobby, and
her good friend coke
is none the wiser.
She’s stuck in time 
and will be for
a while as days
seem to never end,
whilst her bank account
suggests a multitude of
fun.

I hope one day,
very soon, you are
able to blink and
see life ahead of
you. 
After all, you spend
all your time sat
on the sofa waiting
for the change of
scenery to be a 
good one, even though
it will never be
the same, and you
know that too.

wake up my good
friend, wake up. There’s
more to life than
living through it unconsciously.

Sadly, these types of tragedies touch us all, one way or another. Painful thoughts wonderfully expressed.
