happy now.

why would you leave

is this life too cruel,

too brutal for you?

did someone hurt you

so much you had to run away?

it’s been nearly four years

since you’ve been gone

but I couldn’t stop blaming myself

for not seeing you the last time.

are you happy now?

where there’s no sadness

no pain, no misery

are you happy?

please tell us that you are.

I’m sorry

for not doing the right thing

for not stopping you

for not saying goodbye

one last time.

I’m sorry

I’ve missed you

we all do.

t.l.

if you feel like there’s no escaping, please call someone right away. or you can always talk to me.

Please don’t choose that road, we’re the ones that are left with tears and regrets, for not saving you in time.

For Linh.
