Poem 3: Not Here

73 9 2
                                    

Streets beckoning
Lights glistening

Stars calling
Men whistling

Smiles and laughter all through the night
But you're not here

TV playing
Father snoring

Lightning flashing
Rain is pouring

Lazy and relaxed all through the day
I wish you were here

Pointless fighting
Sister screaming

Belief in blaming
Tears are streaming

Guilty and broken, this is my life
I need you here

People mourning
Air is chilling

Man preaching
Dirt is filling

Sadness and loss look upon the grave
Why weren't you there?
