How can I tell you
that you had, have, had
the most beautiful soul this world has ever seen?

How can I tell you
that every day without you
still feels like a dream?

How can I tell you
that every picture I see
still brings me to tears?

How can I tell you
that you changed every life
that you touched in your 23 years?

How can I tell you
that I'm sorry for every word
that I shouldn't have said from the start?

How can I tell you
that it wasn't your fault
when the entirety of my world fell apart?

How can I tell you
that I miss playing Kirby
at three in the morning while the boys played their game?

How can I tell you
that even though everything had already changed,
without you, nothing will ever be the same?

How can I tell you
that I miss telling you
how absolutely beautiful you are?

How can I tell you
that I miss how completely terrifying it was
riding in your car?

How can I tell you
that I miss
your beautiful baby boy?  

How can I tell you
what words
can I employ?  

How can I tell you
that I loved you,  
even if I forgot to show it?

How can I tell you
that I still love you,
or do you already know it?
