I spend all class watching you

Hoping

Praying

you would pay attention to me
and you did

My cheeks rosy with joy when you walked my way

I wore a black dress
and you said I looked beautiful in it

I spend all day with you

Hoping

Praying

you would ask me out on a date
and you did

The question escaping from your full red lips softly as a butterfly’s touch

I wore the black dress you said I looked beautiful in

I sat in the hospital room with you

Hoping

Praying

the cancer results would come back negative
but they didn’t

Your hair once so thick and golden now slowly falling off

I wore the black dress you once said I looked beautiful in

I spent all my wishes on you

Hoping

Praying

you would get better
but you didn’t

I walked to your cold lifeless body
the red lips I once kissed now pale and cracked open

I wore the black dress you once said I looked beautiful in

Now I spend all my weekends on you

Hoping

Praying

you would come back
but you didn’t

no one sees my cold lifeless body
wrists once so perfectly clean now stained with scars

I wore the black dress you once said I looked beautiful in


Now I spend all eternity with you

Dancing

Singing

I hoped we could meet again
and we did

Our smiles framed on our healthy faces and our steps light and happy

I wore a white dress you said I looked beautiful in
