Title: Farewell


My heart was beating in the fastest pace.
For a moment, I thought I was gonna pass out, but I knew I had to be brave.

And so I put one leg forward then the other, there were four pictures surrounded by flowers and candles.
In one of them, you were with your dad.

I wanted to deny it so badly, I prayed to God I had gone back in time and it was his funeral.

But no, on the other three, it was you with that dreamy smile in all of them, it was only you. Scared to death I turned around, but you weren't in the crowd, it was only some strangers and mom.
I wasn't sure if I was dreaming again. I wanted to accept it, but I didn't know how.

We were talking just couple of weeks earlier, you told me how you pulled your grades up and that you're so excited to come home this summer.
Summer was just three weeks away, but you went early.
I guess you really missed your dad, I know you didn't know him very much, but couldn't you have stayed a little longer?

I didn't even get a good picture of you. I didn't hug you enough or told you how much you meant. I was never ready for this. I know the world should mourn as it has lost its kindest, smartest human being.

To this day I don't know what to tell myself. If it's that you've gone to a better place or it's all with a plan. It all seems like a bullshit. Wherever you are, I just hope you're okay, because I'm having the worst summer of my life.
