our spirits can but
only feel sometimes sadness
that cant be spoken

Time traveler spends
Dollar found its way to him
Because he spent it

We watched ice skating together
Last night
I was surprised at how hard you
Laughed when I joked that ice skating
Is like dancing with knives on your feet
I know that you loved the elegance of it
I don't think I even said goodnight
Or thanked you enough for
Everything that you did for me
I remember when you drove me
To the emergency room
You held my hand the whole way
Even though I didn't want you to
I told you to go home but you stayed
You said I'd do the same for you
I don't think I got the chance to
My dad woke me up this morning
Crying
I've only heard that noise a few times
I'll never get used to it
She died of a massive heart attack
He said
She was only 51
I can't accept it though
I still expect to hear the sound
Of your voice
Asking me or telling me something
Maybe I never let you
Be the mother figure
To me that you wanted to be
And I never let myself get
Too attached to you
But I really did love you
I still do and I always will
I really don't want this to be
The end for you
I miss you so much
I want you to be alive when I wake up
