Feather
all you ever needed was to be felt seen.
you hid yourself from this nasty world,
you moulded a side of you that hid your secrets perfectly.
my best friend don’t be afraid,
you carried me into this world when i was made,
our roles changes and i layed you down to leave this land.
you have been blessed with the gift of freedom now and i have been burdened with this relentless void,
don’t worry for me i understand.
as the dust gathers in the spaces you used to fill,
i will look there and see your silhouette still.
we always weazed and fought for our breath out of laughter when we were together,
you took your last breath without me and parted like a feather.
those empty nights when i miss you most,
id turn off the lights and talk to your ghost.
i wont ever forget our special bond,
i miss it everyday,
i can feel it when i visit you in the place you lay.
i like to remember when your name would pop up in my notifications on my phone,
now when i see your name it is carved in stone.
