Dear Sister,
Don't worry,
I'm right behind you,
I'm coming for you.
But you didn't wait,
instead you pushed the blade so deep,
went right through your heart and into mine.
You died,
yet I survived,
only left with these deep wounds.
And a broken heart,
that I'm sure will never heal anytime soon,
because with the end of your life,
you signed mine.
I would have died in your place,
hung on a cross,
for your sake.
I would have wiped every tear,
I would bear a flogging in your place.
Would have taken the burden of
every sorrow and every pain,
but now all I have is your memory to hold on to.
And with each passing day,
more and more details keep slipping away,
I would have gone to hell and back for you.
All you had to do was stay alive,
but instead you took your own life.
Iโm slipping away,
I wished I had told you I love you everyday,
But would it have made any difference?
You hurt me,
I try to forgive you,
I make every excuse,
that it was a mental illness.
I know the sorrows,
because I lived them,
Why couldn't you just wait?
Don't you remember the plans we made,
I promised I would see you,
and I did.
But by then you were already gone,
and they lowered you into the ground,
And I'm supposed to say goodbye.
Forever,
I love you,
Infinitely.

I can't even begin to find the words to fill such a void. I'm so sorry... Sending prayers and hugs and strength to look ahead for brighter days. She will be with you always. ๐
I am so speechless after reaching this line โ because with the end of your life, you signed mine.โ the depth of your pain I cannot begin to imagine. But this line shows your love in such a raw way, that itโs almost tangible. Made even more speechless upon reading to the end. My god youโve endured so much, she has too, both of you. All I can say is I am so sorry for your loss. Your poem spoke to my soul and ripped it apart, I heard you. But again, I could never understand the depth of your pain, but this was stunningly, exceptionally good. Congratulations on your Top Story ๐๐๐
This absolutely broke my heart. You've captured the pain of loss with such honesty. I hope you're doing ok.
