August 5, 2015.
Lit ablaze to count your days
The flames, they flicker and dance,
Yet you're not here to bask in the cheer
And I feel like I'm caught in a trance.
Eleven years on, you're still going strong,
But only in the back of my mind,
Now you've gone away, it's just another day,
These parties don't feel very kind.
Why celebrate when you can hate
The way things fall into place?
Why decorate? Why eat the cake?
If I can't even see your face?
It's been far too long and I still can't move on
Just give me a glimpse of a sign,
I promise my dear, I'll keep waiting right here-
'Till your birthday stars align.
