You need not know
why
how
where.
Just feel
the sorrow in her heart,
the rage in her eyes,
the fear in her blood.
Step through her barrier,
one which she put up
only for you.
Be aware
she has regrets beyond words
that she has to leave everything.
Look into her eyes
as she glares with all her power
towards the cause of her agony.
Be consumed
by the anger there
that anyone would dare try to hurt you.
Touch her memory,
sweetly – as you would
touch your own heart.
Be jolted by the terror overcome
only by one thought:
that you may live in her place.
She is not afraid to let it all go and
seize the pain
because you have given her a miracle.
You were the constant joy that kept her going
now she is willing to stop for you.
Know how she realizes,
that what she’s doing is selfish.
Because it is.
Know how she wants you
to be happy
because only then will she be happy too.
Know that the greatest gift you can give her
is to live your life
and to grow without holding back.
Watch the tears roll down her cheeks.
See her whispers burn with resolve.
Know how she can’t stand
the thought of you
dead before your time.
Because she can’t.
Hold on to the hand of her memory
but let it
lift you up not
drag you down.
Cry out for her.
Scream your last words for her
but then
accept her choice.
Love her always
and know she
loves
you.
Because she does.

I personally like poems with as little punctuation as possible, so I was happy with this
Truthfully, it was very good, and although it is simple, it also felt very meaningly meaningful. I get this feeling with all of your stuff 
I rally don't have much to pick apart or crituque.
I think it's cool how the drawing inspired the poem, usually it's the other way around. I feel the same way when I draw. I start doodling, and then more ideas start comeing together and the thing becomes something more than what I imagined.
Keep up the great work, I love your style
Hi! I really loved this poem! Very simple yet stunning. I think perhaps you could've used more punctuation: commas and colons, namely. I really liked the whole theme of the poem and the vibe it sent off. Very good work - keep it up! Thanks, AC x
