That Moment
I tried to run, but I could not feel my legs
The sensation, the moment, it was too much to bear
I tried so hard, but my efforts amounted to naught
I opened my mouth to scream, to shout out in retaliation
But no sound came out
Again and again, I attempted to call out to you
But the frustration welled up in my throat and choked me speechless
Despite my anguished silence, there was an incessant
Screaming in my head, the screams of the fear of losing you
My face was wet with all the tears I shed in that single moment
Fragments of my soul leaving me, trying to flow to you
The expression that I displayed was indescribable
Such was the unspeakable terror that flashed through my mind
A deep, heavy pit rested itself in my core
The pain was so great, I felt that I might burst
I was shaking, the feeling of weakness drowning me in its despair
I realized there wasn’t anything I could do, not the least
Bit in which I could save you from your undesireable fate
The rain fell. Too cold were the droplets and the depths
Of my soul
The night was still, but that was the worst kind of torture
For this situation
Everyone can hear you in a motionless and sable night
Tell me, what do I have if there is absolutely nothing
Left to live for?
Everything is lost in that timeless moment, the moment
I’ll never, ever forget, the moment when you were taken
And I never saw you again
