More In Death Than In Life

by browneyesblue

Too young, she was just twenty eight
He was almost more than half her age
When she took her own life in the city park
Leaving her last thoughts on a simple page

The note she left him was tragic
As he read it his heart felt the knife
Her words said that although she knew he loved her
She felt he would more in death than in life

In life, he took her for granted
He thought she would always just be there
And now as she lay quiet in her casket
Her silent stillness was too much to bear

She was always special to him
Though she was never his only one
He realized she was right in what she had wrote
But now the bullet could not be undone

She took her life on a Friday
On Valentine’s Day she was buried
Her lover was left to forever ponder
If he lost the one he should have married

- To the woman who took her life in Jacobson Park. May your soul feel understood.
