Submitted by SwimTS15
Write a poem or a short story from the perspective of someone on the one year anniversary of a loved ones’ death.
My Sister
It was a year ago you left me
Alone and breaking
I’m still mad at you, I tell her
I don’t care you didn’t know your boyfriend had a gun
He was abusive and you should have left him
Shouldn’t have waited that long
It was selfish for you to leave me all alone with Mom
She still drinks
It’s worse now though without you
And dad…
Dad left
Without you, the favorite, Mom and I weren’t enough
He couldn’t bare to be here without hearing your laugh
Seeing your smile
I don’t blame him
If it weren’t for Mom I would leave to
But I know if I do she’ll die
And lay here next to you
That would haunt me forever
I don’t want that
Heeyyy guys just wanted to give a shoutout to KitKat and Tangerine! for being my longest followers tysm!
