everyone wore black and looked dark and felt darker it was sunny when the day began, but it started pouring i think the devastation accumulated to unbearable amounts the heavens couldn't even stand to watch my car almost got swept off the road by the rain but i had hoped you'd guide me back i like to think that i got there safe because of you but it was probably just wishful thinking there was too much powder on your nose in the casket a desperate attempt to hide the inevitable decay and that made my stomach lurch into my throat i had to turn away i watched your sister fall apart before that wooden box that held your shell and there are no words to describe how that felt all i could do was let the tears slide down my cheeks the first and last time i saw you, you climbed an enormous evergreen even with your blown out knee and i knew then you were special i was worried you would fall, yet you seemed so invincible i found out soon that i was wrong still i imagine you somewhere grabbing onto branches swinging yourself up smiling wide fearless **
