Come back.

Please get out of my head,

I don't wish you there anymore.

It doesn't matter what I said,

I want you back through the door.

 

I'd take it all upon me,

If we could have you back.

I know I'll never see,

That night of all black.

 

But, I can dream,

That you were here.

It doesn't quite seem,

That you've gone there.

 

I am missing you,

More than I thought.

And it hurts knowing it's true,

Making my mind distraught.

 

Memories fade away,

But not fast enough.

Please give me my way,

And make this journey less rough.

 

I miss you, so much.

I wish you didn't go.

That night will stay in touch,

Especially when it's slow.

 

Alive and well,

With my family.

It would be swell,

And it's where you should be.

 

You were the best step dad...

Even when you made my mom mad.

We will never forget you.

No matter what we do.

I lost a loved one too and I felt the pang with each line and could commiserate with the feeling in your penned lines. Great job here. I am sorry for your loss Cierra. Keep writing. This is very good.

A powerful piece about that missing stepping stone that leaves an empty place in the walkway of life. Well crafted! This speaks volumes on the emotional level.

Great Ink!
