I used to love being alone but I have hated it since you left. See, I have these awful thoughts that linger on and some how I cannot repress.
But even though it was no one's fault and everyone tells me it was for the best. Sadness is a hard feeling to simply shake off, I have been carrying a very heavy heart in my chest.
And so I hate being alone, because when I am I can't stop myself my mind refuses to let you go, and alone I go through my private hell.
Dad, I cry. Dad, we cry and we miss you terribly so it was too early to say goodbye we all wanted you to see us grow.
This poem I wrote as a way to vent some of the pain I have been carrying this week after my father died on his birthday.
