Gone

Ever had

That feeling, when

You don’t think

Something’s important

Till it’s gone?

 

My parents are gone.

Alive, but gone.

I miss them.

Badly.

 

Every second,

I see their faces

Imprinted in my mind

Like a tattoo.

 

By the time you read this,

They’ll be back

But I want you

To know

How it feels

When they’re gone.

 

When they’re gone,

I think about them

nonstop.

Every part of me misses them.

Sometimes, I catch myself thinking

“When I go home, I’ll tell my mom about this.”

And I play

The

Conversation

In my

Head.

Then I remember the truth.

She’s gone.

 

Sometimes,

I think about the big hug I’m

Gonna

give

My dad,

When I get home

 

Then, I realize

That

Last night,

I gave him the last

hug

I’d give him

In 12 days.

Its 11 now, but

It still hurts,

Like a

Band Aid

Ripped off

A

Wound.

Swiftly and

Cleanly.

 

I knew they

Would leave, but

It didn’t seem real,

TIll the day I

Woke up and realized

They were

GONE.
