Death
To my lost family and friends,
I miss you.
I miss everything about you.
I cry about you a lot.
I read a poem called, "Do Not Stand By My Grave and Weep,"
It's by Mary Elizabeth Fryre.
Part of me thinks that it's a sweet poem.
The other part of me gets ticked off by it.
I do not cry because you are dead,
I cry because I will never see you on earth ever again.
I will never be held in your arms.
I will never listen to your laugh,
or get annoyed by you.
I will never be able to tell you I love you again,
or cuddle with you.
I will never be able to say that you are an amazing mom.
Everything is in past tense,
why do you have to be in past tense with it?
I always think about how I need you in different situations,
how I would love to have you,
in different situations.
You could always defuse a situation so well,
you could always stop Harlee from losing it,
same goes for me.
I miss how you could always defuse a situation,
I miss your food.
I miss your signature food.
I miss the way you smelled.
I've gotten to that point.
I miss your smell!
I know your not in pain now, but I know I am.
I know it's selfish,
I know it's wrong, yet I still wish you're alive.
I wish you were still with me,
I wish I can at least say one last goodbye.
