Poem -

Again... And Again

There is a time

When all thatĀ pains

Fades

When all that maims

diminishes

But it is all a charade.

Because it will hit meĀ - Again

And I realize

That your gone -Ā Again

And tears prick my eyes

My chest constricts

and my throat closes

Your prison has so many convicts

Is that what you wanted? Is this what you chose?

The weight of your non existence

hits me - Again

You'll never graduate

You'll never marry

You'll never have children

Oh this burden we carry

Of you, and your mistake

That brands usĀ so often

and causes our chests to ache

And our hearts to soften

I'll never grab your hand

I'll never hear your voice

This IĀ cannot withstand

How could you make this cruel choice?

Is this what you wanted?

For us to have the permanence of grief?

and everyday feel haunted?

After all, suicide is just a diffusion of your own pain.

So why do this? WhatĀ was your aim?

RIP Austin Alexander Cairns 1998-2013
