I lay in bed,
holding that necklace so dearly to me tightly,
looking up at the old, dusty ceiling,
head filled with all those unforgetable memories,
the way he held me in his arms,
the way he made sure to make me smile,
the way he would always hug me when i visited.
. . .
I will never forget those memories,
everyday i stare up at the stupid old ceiling,
always feeling those wet,
salty tasting tears roll down my puffy red cheeks.
"I promise to live forever with you."
repeats in my head over and over again,
i think i've lost my mind,
my whole body goes numb when i hear those words,
he promised me that everday,
but i guess promises don't last forever.
I hate missing him.
. . .
I wish he was still here with me.

This is a poem of loss and sadness that speaks to missing someone no longer present only in memory. Well done
A lot of pain running through this write.
I suppose we all think we'll last forever, but time tells us different.
