11 Years
11 years since the man who took away my innocence
Took his own life. I was still a child.
11 years since I was left without answers as to why.
11 years since I've held onto anger
That took away so many happy moments.
11 years seems like forever,
Yet it doesn't seem long enough.
I hope you are restless in the afterlife.
I hope you left with many regrets.
And I hope if we ever meet again, you are terrified.
Because I was terrified when you were alive.
I felt dead while you were alive.
Now you're dead, and I live.
Karma.
