[and I miss you everyday]

three years ago [this morning]
you didn’t wake up

and I will never be the same

Cemetery

flowers
fake flowers
blooming flowers
flowers that were once alive and now are withered and
dead

dead. 

flags
American flags
military flags
flags with little sayings on them about angels and heaven

stones
stepping stones
gravestones
stones with the same little sayings about the same little things

names
family names
baby names
name of the surviving spouse, birth year only; awaiting death to be joined with love again

your shrinking, dilapidated stone has none
of the aforementioned 
accessories

I cannot make out any characters 
but the one-eight-six-zero

I think next time
I will bring you some flowers

living flowers.

Don't you realize that He has the power to break the door down?

Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. 
If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, 
I will come in and eat with him,
and he with me.
- Revelation 3:20

But He comes to you 
humbly.
