It’s a monster, and suddenly I’m a snack.
Tearing me apart at the seams,
I unravel from the inside out.
The pressure builds,
Always building, building, building.
Like a block tower, soon enough I will topple down,
And all of my pieces will fall to the ground.
For now I stay.
A bird in the nest, afraid to fly away.
If I am forced to stray,
All I can hope for is a long delay.
You are forever gone,
But I can’t figure out how to say, so long.
Goodbye and farewell, don’t come out right,
And a simple see you later is a lie I tell myself every day.
We miss you, and the happiness you bring,
All good things must come to an end, and they do.
But I don’t consider you a good thing,
Nor do I consider you a bad thing.
You were you, and that’s why we loved you.
Now she is alone, and I miss my buddy,
But you are better, and we cling to that fact, with all of our hearts.
