It's Been a Year,

It’s been a year, It's been a year since i've seen your warming smile It's been a year since i've seen your beautiful brown hair It’s been a year since i've heard your voice It’s been a year since i've felt your hugs It’s been a year since i've seen you Where did you go? ‘in a better place.’ Is it true? I don’t really believe it I refuse to believe it I refuse to believe that my last hug i gave you was also your last I refuse to believe that the cycle of bad things happening to good people is neverending I refuse to believe that i let you walk away just for it to be the last time i ever saw you breathing It’s been a year since you vanished. It’s been a year since your face was plastered everywhere But not in the way you’ve wanted since you were a kid Instead, in a way that brought society to tears Instead, in a way that people closest to you could never forget It has only been a few months, A few months since the overwhelming feeling finally sunk in. Everyday after that day, i still woke up ready to see you at school But your seat was empty.
