This is a very very sad poem, but very very nicely written. Each verse has beautiful rhyming. It broke my heart to read of your loss.
Especially not his fault. Terry good luck.

I felt my heart restrict again
I watched your parents cry
I watched and died a little bit
And then I asked God, 'Why?'

Unfortunately there are no answers. Just an emptiness that takes a long time to go away. Sigh.

Oh, This is very very sad. Is it true? If so I am very sorry for you. A terrible tragedy to have to live through for one so young and full of dreams. Good luck in the contest. Nancy

strong use of abcb rhyming including good proximate rhyming like in rasp/last
a dramatic poem of love and love lost far too soon
this will resonate with many readers who have lost a loved one and asked such questions

    I am so sorry, the pain of losing your sister and her child, I just can't begin to imagine the feeling of loss you carry. I also feel sad that my poem has brought on more pain. I wrote this as fiction, but it was based on my own loss of my husband 27 years ago, we had two children, a blessing to me. But I only have to look at them and I see their father. You must think of the happy memories you shared with your sister, that keeps her alive in your heart. Again, I am so very sorry for your loss, and I thank you deeply for sharing this with me. xx

oh, this is indeed sad - I hope it's not true to life -- it's so hard to lose a loved-one.

good luck with the contest.

'Why.' Yes my friend. Well may we ask God WHY? It doesn't help to try and pan out the why's and wherefore's. It is simply called FATE. Well done.

This is a good entry for the Sad poem contest. It is written in a/b/c/b form and flows very well. Sad story of someone losing the one they love when life held so much for the future. Good luck in the contest. Regards Dorothy

This poem effectively captured the emotion of sadness, of the one left alone, after the death of a loved one, run over and killed by an irresponsible driver, at a time when they are planning of marriage a day before his death. The agony and sorrow is painted well in the words of every lines. Excellent job. God bless.
