Up and Down

Up and down….
I keep seeing your chest go up and down,
But I know that is what my mind and heart wants to see,
Your brown skin slowly going pale,
I failed to see you one last time,
I’ll climb any mountain just get one more hug,
Now it’s like a rope tugging on my heart,
Knowing you are gone for good,
It’s like a part of me has disappeared with you,
My mind is not clear,
How you’re gone so fast,
The tears I’ve cried,
Can make a puddle,
I can see myself struggling to catch a breath,
I lied to myself saying that it was okay,
I sighed knowing it will never be,
I can’t fulfil the hole you left inside of me,
When you died,
You took the piece of my heart with you,
Up and down,
In and out,
That’s what I wished your chest did,
When I saw you,
But…
Up and down will never be there anymore,
And so will you.
