FEELINGS

by Patty (scorpio) - Not entered

I have these feelings.
No one knows what they are but me
I started to have these feelings when you left
All of those feelings built up over all this time
There are so many of them
One part of me hates you for leaving so soon
Didn't even say good-bye
Just left
Then another part of me is happy for you
You have no more pain
No more feeling sick all the time
Not knowing when it was going to kick in
Always trying to stay strong
Then there is a part of me that is sad
I cry
Missin gyou all the time
Everything makes me think about you
Then I cry some more
Sometimes I wonder why I cry so much
Then it hits me
I have lost one of the most important people
in my life
One who is no longer there when i really need him
I will talk to you
Hoping you will talk back
Then I say to my self give it up he is gone
Then I think
I think he is not gone,
He just is not present
He is there 
It is just that no-one can see him
He really cares
He really listens
Then I stop crying
I know you are there when I need you
I may not be able to see you 
I may not be able to hear you
But I know you are standing right there
All of the time
Always listening to me
Talking to me
I hate you no more
Because I know you will never leave me

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this poem to share with people how I feel about my step-father's death.  I wanted everyone to know how I am feeling.  It is hard to talk about his death so I wrote about it.
