Denial.
No. He's not really dead
Haha, really funny. Yea I heard what you said
He didn't make it? I talked to him 10 days ago
This isn't funny, stop playing. Are we on a show?
Pneumonia? Isn't that just a cold?
His body will fight it off, he's only 30 years old.

Anger.
Why didn't the doctors save his ******* life?
Don't tell me he's in a better place or I'll cut you with this knife
Why did God have to take MY only brother?
They keep saying he needed his angel. Why couldn't he find another?
Stop telling me you're sorry for my ******* loss.
You DON'T know how I feel. I'm not kissing that cross.

Bargaining.
Please God, this can't be happening
Just bring him back, a miracle shouldn't be too challenging
I'll change my ways and dedicate my life to you
I've read about all the amazing things you can do, they have to be true
I didn't get to say my goodbye
I didn't even get to tell him that I loved him for the very last time.

Depression.
I feel so empty and so sad all the time
Motivation is something that I can't seem to find
I have cried everyday for 3 months straight
But when they ask me how I'm doing, I look up and say "great"
I wish I got to see you and talk to you more often,
But now you're gone forever as your body rots in a coffin.

Acceptance.
It has been almost a decade since you left
I still cry from time to time and sometimes still feel deppressed
Stop loving you or missing you? I will never,
But I accepted  the fact that you're gone forever.
They say there are 5 stages of grief,
Wished they would've warned me about the steps I'd have to repeat.

— The End —
