The True Story Of My Broken Heart

Hurtful and painful…
I got home from school on the 15th of February '05
Where is Michelle I wonder,
As I say her name in my head,
I feel as if my heart has shot through my throat,
A loss I have never felt before,
I brush the feeling away as if it's nothing,
Going to my room to play my game boy

My heart stops as Bobie runs in
Crying "where is my mother?"
I run to my dad asking "What is she talking about?"
He looks away and doesn’t answer
I see a tear running down his face
I wait all night with 6 other children
Just as lost as I
When I see headlights in the driveway

My mother David Rebecca Bobby and 10 others I dont know
Walkin in,
"Is Michelle in the car" I ask
They all look at me with pain in their eyes,
I realize at that moment she won't be coming back
At the same moment the other 6 do as well
A deafening scream pierced the silence
We are all crying screaming no longer do we believe
"Why?" I ask
What cold hearted person could do this?

Never again will I see her radiant smile,
Never again could I tell her I love her
Never feeling her warm embrace again
Never again hearing the voice that could calm me in my darkest moments
Her eyes will never glow again
The pain I felt was increasing
I scream at the top of my lungs, "Why not me?"
Take the pain away, take my life away
I cry all night, tossing and turning
Screaming in my sleep.

I was numb the next day, I felt nothing
Nothing else mattered, I no longer loved the way I used to,
I no longer felt joy the way I used to,
The hole in my heart could never be filled back in
O was once a fun loving outgoing girl
Who could love anyone, I no longer felt like myself
I only felt hate
I loved Michelle, My godmother
To this day I still feel the pain in my heart everyday
I have learned to move on
But my heart will never again be unbroken
