familiar faces seeking comfort in
empty words
and
big hugs
strange to feel a strange touch
inspired by sympathy
with intent to alleviate pain
but still resides on the
borderline
of my [dis]comfort zone.
i cry better when i'm
alone.
but you. i know you.
i see your face torn in despair
and i want to be that strange touch
in hopes that
if only i
radiate my love for you
love's light will shine through
feel me?
feel me.
hug you like i don't wanna let go
i've known you from time
you're not ok, i know.
i have no words to say,
just. let. me.
hold you tight....
to see you like this
is a tragedy in itself.
mother, sweet mother
sedated by sadness
i stare at you
you seem so strong
what is it your leaning on?
should it be shock i only wish
to kneel before you,
tell you this:
presence of unfamiliar faces
a tribute to lives touched
by -his- presence
we've come together to
celebrate -his- life.
should it be faith, i know
the lord is carrying you through
god's grace and your new angel
forever within you
bearing the burden of this time.
no words can express.
you already know.
a mother should never have to...
i'm sorry.
father. i watch you.
you broke down on my shoulder...
i'm sorry,
i never meant to make you cry
i can't give you answers as to why.
it's not fair, i know
you, your actions tear at my heartstrings
eyes fixated on the coffin
is it really -him- inside?
are you wishing
you could switch places with him?
graveside calls for a flower
a sweet rose that you kiss,
a final farewell to your son
you draw it to your lips
he's down below now
you still can't let go now
throw the first handful of
his new earthly home
he will never be alone
[god is with him]
you will never be alone
[he is with you]
i'm sorry.
petey.

i close my eyes
see your smile.
always smiling
so i smile for your memory
funny,
the simple things in life
can bring you pleasure
can bring you sorrow
i re-read my grade 9 yearbook
saw ur simple words
traced them with my finger
instant pain trigger
i can only hope
the live you lived was full
and i can only hope
your end was pain-free
and i can only hope
that where you are now
is filled with beauty
and transcendent peace
an unsurpassable calmness
paling in comparison
to what this crazy world has to offer.
rest now.
in peace.
