This would be known as the worst
The worst day of my whole life
The day you left
The day your heart stopped
Stopped beating for me
For him
For her
For us
The day you slipped away
In blissful silence
In painless sleep
You left
For a second time
You left
But this time there was no apology
This time there was no gift
This time there was no hug
Just your cold
Dead
Breathless
Body
You'll never know how
You ripped me apart
You'll never see me walk across
That graduation stage
I'll never get in our car
With you again
I'll never drive us places
You've never been
I'll never say
I love you
To your face
I'll never hold your hand
I'm selfish
I wanted you to stay
Even in all your pain
I thought I could be good enough
I thought
Maybe
I could be your reason
Little did I know
I was
But you can only live
In a coma
For so long before
You slip away
And never come back
I miss you more than words can say
I miss you more and more
With each passing day
I never said goodbye
I just kissed your head
As you fell asleep
I grabbed her hand
And left
That was that
The last I'd see of
My father breathing
You were 16 when your mother died
I am 15 at your death
If this is a pattern
I wont have kids
To spare them the pain
Of a lost parent
I love you Dad
