it's still hard to remember
by Emily Sullivani've tried to forget you
so i won't feel the pain.
honestly, i never have
taken it all in.
i never said goodbye.
even if i did
i still would feel
this void, this emptiness.
it's strange, you know,
losing someone forever.
sometimes i forget
that you are gone.
maybe because you really
remain with us.
you know, he's really happy again.
and it fills me with a certain
calmness and warmth
to know that.
i know she is not you.
there will never be anyone
to fill the spaces
which you left behind.
i hope you know that he is okay.
i hope you are so happy
wherever you are,
that you are young and dancing
like you used to.
i hope you remember us.
we have not forgotten you,
how can you forget love? 04/12/2001 Posted on 09/02/2003
