The day that you died
The sun came up
you did not
The birds began to sing
You did not
Others hugged me and they told me they loved me
You were silent, still, and peaceful
There was no more pain
No more daily fight for this life...
You had graduated to the next.
The next day
the sun came up
and so did I
The birds began to sing
and so did I
I hugged others and they told me they loved you
I was not silent, nor still, nor peaceful
there was pain
I have this life to fight for...
Graduation is a long way off.
