You're not gone.
The world is still turning.
You're still sitting next to me,
eating chocolates and laughing
on your hospital bed.

How could you have left us?
You knew we needed you.
Why didn't he save you?
He said he would.

If only we had realized sooner,
maybe you could still be here.
Why didn't I realize something was wrong?
Why couldn't I have helped you?

The hole that you left
is ripping me apart.
It feels like everything
reminds me of you,
and I don't want to forget,
but I don't think I can.

I hope you knew how much
You influenced the people around you.
How much you meant.
How you could make me smile
like the flick of a switch.
I hope you knew how thankful I am
that I got to sit beside you,
eating chocolates on your hospital bed.
