    The 6year Mark

    Today is the marking of six years
    Six long hard tearful years
    It's hard to grasp the fact that he is gone
    I miss him I miss my daddy
    Why must I still cry
    I know that he held the majority of my heart
    My heart was in his hands
    And when it happened my hears shattered
    Shattered into millions
    I am slowly picking up the pieces of my heart
    Though I believe God has sent my now best friend to me
    She still can't fill up the hole
    Why can't she
    Because God sent me a friend
    Who is just a human
    A human who can be gone at the snap of fingers
    Then where would I be
    I'd be with a bigger hole in my heart
    One I can't handle
    I can barely handle the one I have now
    I still remember the day he died
    It feels like yesterday
    I can still remember when the doctor told us he was dead
    I remember when I hugged him and didn't feel his arms around me
    I remember laying my head down on his chest and not hearing his heart beat
    That's when I knew he was dead
    I remember hugging him tighter and sobbing saying please come back to me
    I sobbed harder when my pastor said he's gone to a better place
    Eventually I stopped sobbing
    But that image never leaves me
    I cry every time I see it in my head

    He does live threw you and those who are closes to you. Keep writing.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
