Missing People

Missing People

_______________
_______________

It's funny how the 
months go by,

when people pass 
away

and even though 
you miss them

they're 
remembered every 
day.



You remember 
every memory,

until the very last

and it all comes 
flooding in

to the present, 
from the past.



You wish that you 
could talk to them,

tell them how you 
feel

and your heart still 
aches in pain

but seems to 
slowly heal.



You know, that 
they're okay,

they don't have to 
be in pain

you just love them 
very much

and for that you 
don't complain.



Sometimes you 
look for answers,

no matter how 
they come

cause somehow, it 
helps you heal

and you feel, not 
as numb.



7/2/14- Jessica

Jslambert Mister Roboto July 3, 2014 at 12:51 AM part ll So many were taken by car accidents, others suicide, a few shot, two O.D...I have suffered from depression in the past due to these deaths, At 37 yrs old I have just recently come to grips with several of the bright points you made in this freaking phenomenal poem, THanX for helping me think positive with this read! PeAce ~JSL Jessica Thompson July 3, 2014 at 8:10 PM You are so welcome JSL, and I am sorry depression has hit you hard. I don't think I have actually had a complete break down since Mom passed, just small ones in between. Stop by any time and I will do the same . Take care my friend~ Jess

Jslambert Mister Roboto July 3, 2014 at 12:48 AM unfortunately and fortunately, this one got me too. You flipped the coin with this piece and shone light upon the dark side of life, (or so we think) DEATH. The U.S. is one of the few countries that mourn death so hard. Many cultures celebrate it as the only thing in life we all must do. Two of my ex girlfriends died very young, both in car accidents. Also, for some odd reasons, I have more dead friends than I currently have alive. Jessica Thompson July 3, 2014 at 8:09 PM I am deeply sorry for you losses JSL. I hope life finds you in a better place now. I lost my Mom to cancer this last November, not to mention all the other fam and people I know who have passed not too long ago. We all take it day to day. I get release through my writing. Take care my friend, and thanks for the comments. ~ Jess
