That day's memories are swirled in my head, An ombre mix of anger and tears. Gone. You are gone. You pulled a vanishing act in and out of my life And suddenly I wonder if you were there at all. I was so young, A age where they teach you object p-e-r-m-a-n-e-n-c-e. But you were not permanent at all. To tell a ten year old Her friend is never coming home Will tear her a-p-a-r-t For the rest of her life.

Object Permanence
That day's memories are swirled in my head, An ombre mix of anger and tears. Gone. You are gone. You pulled a vanishing act in and out of my life And suddenly I wonder if you were there at all. I was so young, A age where they teach you object p-e-r-m-a-n-e-n-c-e. But you were not permanent at all. To tell a ten year old Her friend is never coming home Will tear her a-p-a-r-t For the rest of her life.
