This perfectly illustrates the point I was making yesterday when we were all talking in the forums... This really drives home the importance of realizing how important and amazing the things are that you have right now, instead of waiting until someone is gone and wishing you had cultivated more loving relationships during the time you had together. This is a beautiful poem, and I'm not saying this is about "don't know what you got 'till it's gone," I'm just saying it really goes along with what I was saying...
~400 DAYS~
by Diane
The poem is dedicated to the authors children which she tragically lost in a fire
Every single day
every single night
this hurt inside
I try to fight
every single moon
ever single sun
the void, that is me
there’s no where to run
the leaves still fall
the flowers still grow
I still sit and wonder
where did you both go?
My heart always broken
I count all the ways
forever missing you both
even after 400 days
