I cried again for you today
She didn’t know, you see?
She didn’t realize that you had passed.
So I had to talk about you again
About your pain and your passing
And I cried again
But I cry for me, not you,
And I cried less today then I did the time before
So maybe the next time
I’ll cry even less.

Thank you Heather, sometimes I have to struggle to write poetry and other times, it’s more like it’s a struggle to keep the poetry in. That doesn’t mean that what comes out is perfection, but at least it’s honest.

Thank you Angie, there is sadness, most definitely, but there is hope too, for a day when I cry a little less and smile at the memories a little more.
