no one can
take anything back
no one should
take anything back.
though we wish
your physical presence
was among us
we still feel you here.
you can't expect
yourself to
find diamonds
in a coal mine.
but,
we must accept
that you are
still with us.
i am still so saddened
by these events
i wish i could've been there.
my heart wants
to turn back the time
and change things.
i can't stand myself.
i was told
you would come back.
i'm scared
because i need you
now,
not then.
you left an imprint
in my soul
and you will
continue to fill it
for the rest of my life.
