Tamiko has been dead for 10 years and the kids (now adults) have found their father Xanxus.

Now reunited with his family his daughter Angelica takes him to his wife's grave.


It was the first time I saw him like that

The first time I saw him kneel

The first time I saw him hang his head with sadness and grief

And despite the rain

I thought I saw a tear

It was dark

So I could not see his face

It was silent

With only the sound of raindrops falling on leafs and my umbrella

He rested his hand on the cold wet stone

Like a crooked old man

His raven hair dipped in silver

Staring at the grave

Dark letters spelling out your name

You

His love

And now you're gone

Ten years have passed since then

The tears that were shed on that day

Have dried

But still

The memories linger

The sadness

The happiness

The laughter

We all miss it

All of us

Especially him

That man who now stands in front of your resting place

His eyes drifting back into reality

Silently striding past me

Like a shadow that lost its meaning in life

Dark and lifeless

No light in the heart

What do you think mom?

Will dad ever smile again?


I hope you liked it :)
