Mourning
It didn’t start when I heard the news
It didn’t start at your funeral
It didn’t even start when I realized you were gone
Those were not times for mourning because you were still with me
It started now
When I realize I have forgot about you
When I realize that there have been times when I have smiled and laughed
And you where not with me in my thoughts
I promised you I would never let go
I told people who told me to let go that I couldn’t
The mourning starts when I realize what this means
It means that you have fully died
And now it is time for the real mourning to begin
It didn’t start at your funeral
It didn’t even start when I realized you were gone
Those were not times for mourning because you were still with me
It started now
When I realize I have forgot about you
When I realize that there have been times when I have smiled and laughed
And you where not with me in my thoughts
I promised you I would never let go
I told people who told me to let go that I couldn’t
The mourning starts when I realize what this means
It means that you have fully died
And now it is time for the real mourning to begin
