I think I hate you for leaving.

Why did you leave that day?

I suppose it is my fault,

You left because of me after all.

When the man came to our door,

I was petrified, and I had a good reason to be,

I broke down.

Never in my life have I ever felt that alone,

Never felt that shattered before,

Like the world around me broke.

I hate that you left me.

Why couldn’t I have saved you?

I took down all your pictures.

It makes me feel guilty,

Guilty that you are gone,

And I am still here.

The wind doesn’t flow the same.

The sun doesn’t shine as bright anymore.

The world seems to have lost its color.

Everyone went on,

And I am still here,

With your memory haunting me.

I miss you.

How am I supposed to move on?

You were my life. 

I think about you a lot. 

Why did you have to be a hero?

You saved someone, 

only to make another miserable.

I hate myself for not stopping you from leaving.

I am a slow hourglass,

A single speck of sand falls,

Only when I think of you.

My hour has gone by quickly

I don’t think I have the strength to turn it again.

I don’t hate you, 

I miss you, David.
