Gone
about two years ago
feels like yesterday
your memories are still fresh
it's only your body that died
your spirit didn't
for I feel it
I recall our closeness
and the day before your demise
you gave me signs
but I was so dumb
I didn't understand that you were leaving
leaving me alone
in this cruel world
I wish I could prevent your death
but it was inevitable
you were my favorite cousin
my heart still bleeds
memories of the lowering of your body
images of your casket
and I still hear your voice and your words
that last day
"kokkie ,bye ,this world is cruel ,I'll miss you"
continue resting in peace sweet cousin
