My friend left in the middle of our conversation
I’ll never know what else he might have said
He was interrupted when telling his story
Who knows where else he may have led

I was the light you had to vanquish
Just like your light once was
For I was too much like you
To ever earn your love
I’m sorry for what you went through
They were wrong to take your smile
But being haunted by your own monsters
Does NOT give you the right to be mine.

flowers wither
new ones will grow
in their place
this much I know
the strength to keep going
this year I have lacked
but a flower I am
like a flower I will; grow back

I wish I could still remember your smile
It pains me that I no longer know what you smelled like or what it was like to kiss your wrinkled cheek
I wish I had known that the last time I saw you would be the last
I wish I could see you once...or ten times more
If I did I would memorize everything about you
And I wouldn't be sitting here now-desperately trying to remember the colour of your eyes
Fearing the day when I can no longer hear your voice

You lingered, I think
When you were saying goodbye to me.
My grin grew wider for each hug and when you rested your head on my shoulder
My cheeks, they turned pink
When you walked away the world was again colder.

You're so much like our father
With the careless gaze you have
Your unempathetic, selfish ways
Your golden, bright blond hair.
Perhaps it is why you coloured it brown
So you'd look more like me instead
You must not have noticed yet, dear brother
I look so much like our dad.

You took the train out of town in the morning
heading south
Left your smell behind among the covers when you went
In the early evening I lie in bed
hugging the pillow on which you slept
Taking in your sweet, familiar scent

I had been wandering blindly in darkness, then you found me
You brought with you the sun and it has been shining through the clouds ever since
How am I now to cope with being alone in the dark, once more?
When in the light I was taught to see

It is yours, take it
I know it will be crushed in your hands
I know that you will break it
Go ahead and stomp on it,
drop it, pierce it, drain, destroy it
it is yours nevertheless

I might be weak and rather small
But I want you to know there is nothing at all
I wouldn't do to make you smile
I would swim against the raging Nile
I would sail across the great blue seas
I would find a way to achieve world peace
For I might be timid and rather ill
But my love for you is greater still
