Mourning

I was there when it happened,
On the day that you died,
I didn't know what I felt,
I hadn't even cried.
I had no business there,
No reason to be,
I felt lost and alone,
Because you understood me.
From the moment you left,
Me in this world,
The truth of your existence,
Became unfurled.
I thought that I could run,
So far away,
But then I found a reason,
To wait and stay.
I couldn't stay long,
I was locked in my mind,
My forgotten sanity,
I couldn't find.
When you've got nothing left,
Nothing left at all,
You start to feel,
Yourself to fall.
So pick up the pieces,
Of your shattered self,
And realize,
You're no trophy on a shelf.
So you simply rebuild,
Become something better,
So you see the result,
Of this simple gesture.
