To the Girl That Disappeared
wouldn't have cared
if it wasn't for the way you disappeared
or when you disappeared
or even who you were to me
you were my sister you disappeared due to getting in
a car accident at 2 o'clock in the morning
boy what a way to wake up the day
before your birthday
December 31st of 2015 is one day
i will never forget
waking up to my mom screaming like she was getting raped
to walking into the kitchen to three police officers
my mom screaming bloody murder
in my dads arms and my grandmother
standing there telling what happened
me wanting to just be by myself
but having a caring grandmother
and father they didn't let me
be alone that day or that night
the thoughts and endless nightmares
i had and continue to have or
the tearful nights i cry myself to sleep
because i am thinking of a way i could have saved you
or my last words to you
just kill me just the thought that your just gone
or the night i had so much anger and sadness
built up it drove me to take a thumb tack off my wall
and dig it into my skin just because the thought of you being gone kills me
but luckily i asked for help.
