I miss you everytime i think about you
I miss you everytime i achieve something
I miss you everytime i doubt my capabilities
I miss you everytime I'm lonely, hurt, disappointed and depressed

Yeah people come and go
And i know
That it happened 7 years ago
But it still hurts like crazy.
Mommy it's no secret that I'm holding on to you and i refuse to let you go.

I refuse to forget about you
I'd rather stay this miserable knowing it's making me feel closer to you
Than being happier and forgetting about you.

I still think my life would be much better if you had stayed a little longer
A little longer to see me grow into this strong, caring and loving daughter
But am i really strong?
Should i consider myself strong when i fail to just let go of you?

A promise from me to you is that I'll never give up on my dreams
I'll fight even harder when it feels like I'm being defeated.

Words came out
in mind and soul,
they aren't out of
nowhere.
It is an interpretation
of belonging.

Our words
are mind's guide
to a wandering soul.

It's okay to be alone.
You learn of the friend you have within yourself at that point.

Anything, just don't do these things,

Don't obsess over Covid - 19 whenever you call,
That stuff is known by all,

Don't put your nose stuck in the phone,
Mute away the notification tone,

Don't keep scrolling down the social media page,
Beware for it's nothing but waste,

Don't keep panicking and hovering over the news,
Relax and take a look outside at the sky so blue,

Anything, just don't do these things!

Anything, just do something,

Watch a movie or two,
Or read a book written for you,

Listen to a podcast to learn,
Or make a painting for fun,

Dance to your favorite playlist,
Or learn a language to add to your list,

Exercise - be it cardio or weights,
Or go into the yogic meditation state,

Learn an instrument - be it with spoons and plates,
Or play a game like carrom and chess,

Reorganize your room and your wardrobe too,
Or cook some food for the people around you,

And of course you could write a book
Or some poems here on HP too,

Anything, just do something!
