Wow- don't read this if you're sad....

One thing this course has really done for me is to allow me to self-reflect on my writing previous to this course. I have really gone through up and down periods in my writing, times when I haven't written at all, and others where my pen barely leaves the page. I came across this piece of writing that's dated February 26, 2001, and although I found it very dark and disturbing, it really hit me hard. It's fairly obvious, (or at least I think it is) that I was going through a very difficult time when I wrote this, and I'd love to get some feedback as to how this affects others.

Thanks!

Death, destruction, disaster.
Youth lost, life cut short
Grief, disbelief, anger and resentment.
Failure to save- to aid
A stranger, a son, a bestfriend, a nefew?
Fallen in the dirt and gravel,
Amongst the insects and grass,
To belong underneath,
Soon and forever.
Do flowers say goodbye?
Does a strecher heal wounds?
A lifetime is broken in a second
Wonder if he feels what I feel-
if he can feel at all.
Pain brings shock,
Shock brings silence.
Death has silenced him once and for all.
Torn, twisted, tight.
