Bittersweet

So sad,
To say goodbye. 

You are gone. 
And I must continue living. 

I'm at a somber loss. 
Because you have died.  

To never, ever
Touch or hold you again. 

I want to cry. 
Cuz now,

All I have are memories. 
Of what once was. 

Sure, your spirit visits me. 
But it's not the same. 

I miss our conversations. 
Staring and going deeply into your eyes. 

You're not here. 
Bittersweet as it may be. 

I do accept, 
Death happens to all of us.
