Something that popped into my head and I just had to put it down here. It's very short, but please review. Takes place just after Hector is killed and it sets in with Andromache, (Troy hasn't been ravaged yet).
Even those with sight beyond ours could not see
What had lie ahead of you for you to face
I did not even see it
I had been blinded by my love and compassion for you
My soul did not want to look ahead and see what could happen to you
I was just one person
Just a plain girl
But when I found you I found myself
But now that you're gone
Everything is falling on me
I see the clouds high up in the sky but they hang low in my eyes
I see the tears flow past your father's eyes yet they seem like open seas
And all of it is falling on me
I hold the one reason I live everyday close to my heart
Your son, our son
I hold him now
But now I even fear for him
Where will you be when he says his first word?
Takes his first fall?
I will be here having everything fall around me
While he struggles to remember your kind face and heart
I fear for his future and the fate of our home
The only place I have been able to call home
But now I am wary of all of our futures
Because now that I've lost you
Because now that you're gone
I can't stop everything
From falling on me
Sad, I know. But please let me know what you think of it.
