Finally Free

I came up with this poem after hearing about what happened to one of my best friends. I changed it's context slightly from when I first wrote it, I admit, but it means the same thing. Hope you enjoy!

You became irrational

Unconcerned with anything

And who could blame you?

You were tortured, overcome.

We just watched as you faded

You faded away

Slowly slipping away from us

We could do nothing

Just as helpless as you

Your life was stolen

We waited for you to retaliate,

To break free

To fight back

But you didn't

You where broken, beaten

Had lost your will

You didn't care any longer

We were there when you let go,

I held your hand as you smiled

I quite enjoyed this. I'm not entirely sure of the whole meaning of this, I feel there is this deeper meaning that I'm never going to understand. I liked how there were parts in italics, and the impact those parts had.

Sad. Sad and just plain beautiful.
