2019......
<span class="html-content"><p>When you passed, something died in me. Something else kept me awake and asleep I dreamed every day of having nightmares. I tried to hold back the tears. But I was drowning on the inside. To date, the front seat feels like a trap. Bro, why did you leave us? We never ended our conversation. I learned what you asked of me when you woke up. I was so sure you would wake up and stay up. Prayed, praised, and waited. I still remember coming that night and smiling. You had so many calls that day. I didn't know you were going to answer God.</p> <p>Shiiiii</p> <p>I wish you didn't, though. Remember when Utuk called and shared the news? I froze in the shower. Drenched in my own tears Asking why Why the f**k did I step out unscratched? Many thought of it as a testimony. But why would I celebrate a second chance? When your mom was mourning her second child Her only son</p> <p>I took a few pills But didn't heal Rolled a few Blau But the pain was still loud. Stripped a few blouses But these houses These blocks These locks Stand strong Screamed, creamed Ran, drank , Sang, sank, Searched, read, Shared, bred, Cared, led, Bled, fled, But still broken.</p> <p>Four years later, And you ain't back When does it end? How does it end? I wish I hadn't told you to follow me. Maybe we'd still talk. And these memories wouldn't stalk me I still hear the tire screeching. I remember you sitting still. Still hurts I guess that's what life is. A LOT of... NOT ENOUGH OF... BECAUSE OF....</p> <p>They put the blame on you. Put up a post on that. They didn't take my words I said I was in trauma. How can I unlive that day? I've moved past it. The systems have always been thrashy.</p> <p>Just so you know I got taller! I still play with words. I work out often. Since you're in the clouds Quick question... Is it crowded up there? Since you're looking down Thought to keep UPdated!</p> <p>I had to end this on a happy note. Bro, I know you're gone But I still see you.</p> <p>And yeah, I'm better now.</p> </span>
