Shattered dreams

I'm calling your number although I know you won't pick, you can't no matter how hard I pray for you to, no matter how many times I called, no matter how many nights I stayed awake wanting you, you'll never come back. How did this happen? how did you leave so early? this wasn't the plan, we wanted to be each other's safety place, your love knew no bounds, even against some of your standards you loved immensely, your heart knew no enemy, your arms never ached to hold me, your ears always tinged happily to my voice. You cared flawlessly.
oh my darling friend, if words could bring you back I'll write from now till it does, if crying could bring you back I'll make the Atlantic ocean jealous of water, i wish I could yank you off that new space you've been lowered into. I wish I can call you one last time just this last time.
I would do anything just anything to see you one more time, anything to have you here. How do you die at 26? how do you live so shortly with an everliving impact. Nnam oh, je nke oma, mara na m huru gi nanya, ezigbo oyim.
