On The Love Side of Grief

You died…

You died and I don’t really know what to say or write…

You died and the world didn’t stop turning…

You died and the time didn’t stop running…

…why is that?

You died and I keep on waiting…

You died and I keep on seeing you come back…

You died and I kept on seeing your smile…

You died and I keep on feeling your warm heart…

You died and I keep on hearing your jokes…

You died and I keep on walking with You around Brussels…

You died and I keep on riding a bike with You…

You died and I keep on playing around with You…

You died and I keep on waiting for Your letter…

You died and I keep on refusing it is true…

You died and I keep on waiting for You to return from Africa…

You died and I keep on waiting for You…

You died and I keep on drinking wine with You…

You died and I keep on remembering every little detail of our Friendship…

You died and I keep on cherishing every memory of You…

You died and I keep on seeing Your face…

You died and I keep on living a life of emptiness…

You died and I keep on crying…

You died and I keep on denying…

You died and I keep on falling apart…

You died and I keep on imagining Your life from before…

You died and I keep on believing You were happy…

You died and I keep on looking for sunshine…

You died and I keep on writing to You…

You died and I keep on loving You!
