I didn't forget your birthday
I never had the chance to ask your favourite colour
I never got to cook a meal for you
I don't even think you remember the time
I cried, when you left me in a world I needed you
God took you away though, for a good reason
but six months
was so long at that age I didn't want you to leave~
~
6 months ago today I lost you <3

The Ground does not deserve you
There are places you return to out of habit, not belonging. Rooms that once held you because you didnโt yet know you had the right to leave. People who mistook your endurance for agreement, your silence for consent, your presence for loyalty. Coming back to the ground with clarity means seeing all of it without the old fog softening the edges. You stand in the doorway of your own life and realize that some of the ground youโve been walking on was never meant to hold your weight.

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."

The brevity of the lines enhances the impact, conveying a sense of absence and unfulfilled moments, the mention of God's role adds a layer of acceptance and understanding, in just a few lines, it evokes a profound sense of loss and tugs at the our heartstrings, thank you very much for sharing.
I can feel the love and the deep sadness in your words๐
Whaaaaaatt? I cannot fathom the pain, Kodah! ๐ Magnificent poem. ๐ค๐ซถ๐ป
Oh Kodah. Iโm so sorry ๐
Beautiful poem Kodah, Iโm so sorry๐
Heartbreaking ๐ฅบ So sorry Kodah. Great poem!
I'm sorry. You've expressed this beautifully, by the way.
Oh, so heartbreaking. Grief is so individual but ultimately comes down to the love that cannot be shared anymore.
Lovely one!
Some angels are not meant for earth. We borrow them for a short time. Sometimes way too short a time. ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ค though they are with you in spirit. Sadness will fade. Hoping for sunlight and joy in your world.
A moving farewell!
last line ๐ฅบ Iโm so sorry Kodah. Sending lots of hugsโค๏ธ
Gosh Kodah, I wish I was there with you to give you a hug ๐ฅบ Are you feeling okay? It must have been so difficult to write this but I hope it was therapeutic. Sending you lots of love and hugs ๐ฅบโค๏ธ
