Panic squeezes my heart

I dreaded our distance apart

On my phone, I see your feet

I wasn't excepting to face the heat


My hands shake, my body quivers

Just the thought of it gives me shivers

I shouldn't have let you go

I'm so sorry that I was too slow


Your memory forever haunts me

Your name makes me fall to a knee

I am unsure of who I am

And trying to remember makes my head slam


I couldn't stop you, though I tried

I hoped long ago that my tears would have dried

Sometimes I hear your final gasp

And it reminds of how far you were out of my grasp


I can see your chair fall, hear your neck snap

My heart pounds heavily, as though I've just run a lap

I am traumatized, so scared and feeling small

I often see your smiling face looking down the hall


The last memory I have is a constant haunt

My trauma isn't something that I flaunt

Abuse it and you will surely see

Karma will come, but not from me


I may appear strong, but I am certainly weak

What she put me through gives me nasty streak

I'm haunted by memories I cannot flee

But use them against me, and what will come, you will not see
