The Death of Bradley
How could I not see,
the way you hold me,
was to protect me.
How could I have saved you?
Yet I didn't.
You dived down to protect me
from the bullet
that went through your heart.
Your last words were about "love."
I thought that you wouldn't die,
that you'll hold on to life,
that you wouldn't leave me,
But you did.
You left me to protect myself
from the darkness.
You thought I was a fighter,
You were wrong
cause there's no protection
from the darkness
within my heart,
soul,
and mind.
And the ambulance came
pronounced you dead at 13:00 hours,
in the morning.
And I was left to clean up after
your innocent blood
left on my once pure shirt.
Darkness and silence surrounds me,
as the battle isn't finish yet.
