It is still too raw waking up every morning and expecting to see you not making noise because you were the only person still sleeping in on a school morning it is still raw and bursting like some awful infected wound when you were dying i kept praying it wasn't cancer now i wish it were because i would have had more time with you it is still raw and flaming not being able to watch series because you're missing out how do i tell you i miss you when you arent a contact on my phone anymore how do i do this? Pops, I went to you for everything I couldnt fix myself how, tell me how? Yesterday, we played a home video and I heard your laugh That dying-seal laugh you could hear a mile away I thought you were there with me You were there with me I'm not ready for this My heart is broken and raw, still too raw
