I DON'T WANT TO CRY

Why am I still crying?
Am I doing this wrong?
Tears cascade like rainfall
Has it not been too long?

Some days I'm certain
My marathon's ran
Then my mind's eye recalls you
And the drops fall again

Foolish, they call me
“You should be past this by now”
Yet they offer no answer
When I ask them, “How?”

I know why I do it
It's no mystery
I love you, I miss you
You are part of me

Each moment without you
And your piece of my life
Feels empty and hollow
And it cuts like a knife

I'm not sure it matters
That I don't want to cry
As I remember
I didn't want you to die

DEDICATED WITH LOVE TO MICHAEL AND TO MY BELOVED MOTHER, WHOM GOD MERCIFULLY TOOK TO BE WITH HIM 33 YEARS AGO.

Let me know what you think.  I appreciate your feedback.
