16th of March 2009 (Poem)

 Tomorrow will be two years later,

 

Tomorrow will be two years since that terrible fateful day,

Tomorrow will be two years since you left us.

 

I cannot imagine the idea of you not being here anymore,

You're honestly, really, seriously gone.

 

I remember the moment  Ifound out.

My first thought was: Oh My God, How Dare You?!

 

I couldn't imagine the idea of you not being there,

Through it all, I did admire the lady in you.

 

Your smile, your laughter, your bright shining eyes,

They all dissapeared on the 16th of March 2009,

 

You're really gone.

 

I was not a friend, I didn't even like you most of the time,

But even I cannot deny that you were, and are, a beautiful lady.

 

So much has happened since that day, so very much.

You left this cruel, young world, lucky you.

 

But those of us who remain, we're here through it all.

 

Last week we saw Japan dissapear under the Tsunami,

Last month we saw Libya commit suicide as its people killed one another.

 

You are gone, you are in a much better and more beautiful place.

Lucky you. You who never had to see how worse it got after you left.

 

Dear beautiful lady, I don't even have a right to write this,

But in my heart I know, we both know what our truth was and still is,

 

We both loved and still continue to love in the same way,

You were beautiful, you were a shining light, and my dear...

 

Even today, two years later, you are missed.
