Marie

My dear Marie, where did the time go?

We met years ago, but it feels like yesterday

My dear Marie, where did it all go wrong?

The pictures of us remain on my phone

I refuse to delete them

To erase them

I don’t want these memories to leave

I’m not ready to let go

The car crash happened last year

Taking you away from me

I ask God the same question everyday

“Why did you take her away from me?”

“What was the purpose of all of this?”

My faith is strong

My heart ,however, is weak

It’s a proven fact that one can die from heartbreak

Is that what’s gonna happen to me?

If I’m going to be honest, I have to admit I wouldn’t mind

Maybe the tides of death will bring us together again

Or maybe I will find you in another life

Still beautiful, as you were in this one

Some say I will recover

I refuse to believe so

How do you recover from your still-beating heart being ripped from your chest?

I might as well be blind if I can’t see a world without you and I

I wish to bring you back

I wish to have you in my arms again

Not being cradled in death’s

My dear Marie

I will find you again

I promise
