Disclaimer: Hopefully, you guys know the drill. Nothing is mine, I just write poems about Stephanie's characters.
This one's about her hallucinations.
Distant
Choosing not to remember
Not to travel the road of pain.
I can't fool myself into thinking that everything
Will be alright.
Even though I try.
I hear you
And I imagine
You're still here.
I'd like to think you are
Watching over me
Keeping me safe.
Even though I know you're gone.
I wish I could go back
Say something
Anything
To make you stay
To make you love me.
Or even just see you
One last time
And say goodbye.
I'm trying to stay strong
But how can I when you're gone
You took my happiness
And I don't think
I'll ever smile again.
Edward
Alive in my memories
That make the hole fade
For a while.
So I'll keep taking these risks
You warned me against
But it's worth it
Just to hear you
To remember.
I won't let you fade away.
I'll be here
Holding on to your memory
Until my dying day.
