May....

You may have closed your eyes that night,
You may have chosen to move on,
You may have ended the pain and suffering,
But why should that mean you are gone?

And though
I may be hurting like I've never hurt before
I am glad you are in peace.
Your pain and suffering has ended,
You don't have a reason to cry any more.

You may have thought you were alone,
and I know how that can feel.
You may have felt like there was no exit,
Like there was no place you could call home.


Your body may be six feet under
But your home--your home is here
In my heart.

I loved you since before you were born
I loved you when I taught you math
I loved you when you picked on me
I loved you when I picked on you
I loved you when I said goodbye
I loved you when you made me cry
I loved you when you made me laugh
I loved you when I left our house
I loved you when I went back
I loved you when you were here
And
Of course I love you now. 

I will always love you
And you will never again be alone. 


To my Heidy, my alborotito, with all my heart.

From your almost-sister, your T.u.T.a



Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
