As I dotted polka dots
I hoped for the best
I wished they could heal you
When nothing could
Orange construction paper
Countless markers
I bunched them in my fists
As the paper became speckled
I made it at school
After the visit
Sent it immediately
Hoping it would make it
My family took a trip
To that old wood cabin
The wonderful place
You had called home
One milkshake
My gift to you
I smiled so big
As I gave it to you
I had no clue
You couldn't smile back
Or grab that cup
That was when I knew
The lady that layed there
My beloved Aunt
Wasn't the woman I knew
It just wasn't you
I felt the sadness
Of everyone in the room
The held back their tears
For me and for you
As I looked into your eyes
When I touched your hand
I knew that moment
Was our last
My parents held me
Between them
In their bed
May 3rd, 2010
The day my life changed
A new guardian angel
Confused once again
Why you?
When I walked into the funeral
The first thing I saw
Were those polka dots
On my orange card
When I aged I learned
That bright orange card
Made it a couple days late
I fell apart
