Yeah, so as that suggests, I've been trying so hard to forget about it because it's all in my head. It's just a nightmare.

I'm smiling in pictures so people don't see everything. I don't want them all to know how bad I've been dealing with this.

I zone out all the time, and it is a little noticeable, but not too bad.

I don't want to acknowledge the fact that you're really gone. I've seen your body. I thought that would be proof enough for my mind. Guess not, because I still saw a rise and fall coming from your chest.

I couldn't help but think, "He's not dead, he's just sleeping. Why are we all here crying?"

But you are gone. And you can't come back.
