Again
today
I dreamt
of you
Again today
You were
there for me
In my
dreams
Twelve
years it’s been
And I
remember like it was just yesterday
I miss
you so
That grief
thing rears its ugly head and bites
And that
motherfucker has teeth
Twelve
years or fifty it is all the same
You are
gone
And only
in my dreams are you real
At first
I was sad
Then I
got mad
How could
you do this
Now it
is an ache
Like a
missing limb
Ghost pains
I keep
a piece of you here
In my
chest
You told
me when I was young
Real men
don’t cry
After a
bit of life went by you told me you were so wrong
That tears
don’t make you less of a man
I am glad
to know that
Because
I still have tears for you
More for
me without you
