Fragile Moments

When a person dies,
the deceased no longer suffers but rather the living suffers,
memories of the decease sometimes becomes very vogue,
but this doesn't' mean the person is forgotten but work
somehow makes drowning sorrows easier...
Sadly when work disappears,
celebration comes,
presence is missed..
Accepting that your loved one is no longer there is what's hardest.
You pray to God wishing that he would just give it one more time..
but you know that one more time will never happen...
and even if there was a one more time..
it will never be our last as we would never want to let go...
When one says let go,
it's never possible as the sweet memories lingers within your heart..
you can never let go of a person but you can accept that they are no longer there..
however, accepting is hard..almost impossible..
but if souls do exists..i know it would hurt you to see us suffer as we miss you..
I can try to accept..but...
Letting you go is impossible,
forgetting you is never..
loving you is forever..

Missing you

I often hear the whispers of your sweet words,
The way you use to tell me what’s right from wrong,
Slowly caressing me as the baby I was,
Humming your sweet songs good night,
Sitting back makes me miss you more than words,
A drop of joy exists only because we know you no longer suffer,
But the thought of you gone makes the happiness disappear,
The emptiness from your presence makes forgetting you impossible,
The beautiful person you are inside out,
Makes the heart bleed as you no longer breathe the same air,
I just wish there was more I could do when you were here,
I do wonder now,
Where are you? Is it beautiful? What are you doing? Who’s looking after you? Do you still remember us?
I wish I could see you just one last time,
But I know there will never be a last time,
Cause I can’t let go,
I just wish you could come back,
Tell me it’s all okay,
Tell me that you’re happy,
Give me one last hug,
But I know the last will never end,
When I lay down at night,
I close my eyes and see your playful smile,
The way I had to force you to eat your fruits or your medicine or vegetables,
Even if I had to do it all over again I would,
Even for a hundred times,
If only it was possible,
I should’ve known you were going,
Being a fool of ignorant,
I didn’t see it coming,
If only you were a painting, i wish i could paint you back to life
Now I’m only left with a memory of you,
And that memory I will carry forever,
Loving you forever my dear Po-Po.

Irony

Chinese New Year,
always the best time to of the year to celebrate...
cash, gambling and great food...

I was always looking forward for this time of the year..
It's better than Christmas i thought to myself...

But this year,
it's different...you're not here..
that smile to greet me at the door is no longer there...
all that's left are the memories of you,
the kindness in your face,
the love that you spread around with your presence..
is no longer here.

NOW...
it's not the same without you,
I miss you, can you hear me?
I want you back...do you know?
Hold my hand, smile as we eat, laugh as we joke,
just one more time.

Entering what was suppose to be your house..
now filled with a bunch of fakers who have robbed you of your wealth,
Strain you through your health and broken your spirit as you lived..
yet, with your kindness when you were breathing you forgave them..
you swallowed the pain and gave us your best.

You were the best of everything,
you were the perfect figure of man kind,
though anger fills my heart when i see those who have hurt you,
i find it easy to forgive now,
through the kindness you have shown,
the love you have shared,
the power you have given,
you thought me how to forgive,
how to live a beautiful life,
how to love and how to appreciate,

It's so hard to forget that you're gone,
feeling that you're still there,
living with us,
breathing our air,

Your absence have thought me how to live,
how to grow from where i am,
how to be beautiful inside.

Though missing you every moment causes my heart to bleed,
I still want to as it has given me the courage to do many things,
To be that beautiful person that you are,
To love and not to hate,

I don't want to forget you.
