hospitals remind me of you the frail, the weak, the fed up It’s been a year and I still think about you It’s been a year and my chest still feels heavy I tried my best to be happy and I still do every day but the thoughts of you rush to the front My mind traces the memory of you in the bed The beeping of the oxygen tanks Your muddled voice Your surprisingly warm hand but pink nose the lump in my throat is supposed to go away, when will it leave me just like you did? It’s been a year and I still find myself crying in bed, in the dark and busy bars, on busses and long walks I want to hear your voice and stupid comments about greek politics I know you’re resting in peace I whisper quietly every night to you in the stars but I still miss you tell me how do I learn to rest in peace too, knowing you’re gone?

rest in peace
hospitals remind me of you the frail, the weak, the fed up It’s been a year and I still think about you It’s been a year and my chest still feels heavy I tried my best to be happy and I still do every day but the thoughts of you rush to the front My mind traces the memory of you in the bed The beeping of the oxygen tanks Your muddled voice Your surprisingly warm hand but pink nose the lump in my throat is supposed to go away, when will it leave me just like you did? It’s been a year and I still find myself crying in bed, in the dark and busy bars, on busses and long walks I want to hear your voice and stupid comments about greek politics I know you’re resting in peace I whisper quietly every night to you in the stars but I still miss you tell me how do I learn to rest in peace too, knowing you’re gone?
