Tell Me
Tell me, what is death?
Dreams unanswered by realities?
A touch unfelt,
A laugh strangled by a cough?
When do you cease to exist?
When we forget?
When all pictures are burned and your image is only impression,
A mix of colour, memory, and emotion smeared in my mind?
How do I know you were real?
By the ones who grieve and wail?
Strangers who share our blood,
And look in my eyes only to see you.
Tell me, what is death?
A promise that goes unbroken.
R.I.P. Dad i love you
