Even Though You Fell

[Maria]

I linger in you,
I can't let you go,
If I can come to you,
Be sure to let me know.

I've tried to stop crying,
But I miss you so much,
I wish I could hug you,
Feel one last touch.

And I feel so lonely,
They don't understand,
You were what held me up,
Kept the grip of my hand.

I'm still grieving for you,
Only eight months ago you fell,
I swear I'm moving on,
On my past I don't dwell.

I just need you by my side,
And can't believe you're gone,
I can't explain how I feel,
About something so wrong.

You were meant to live,
But who is to say how long?
You were brave though,
You were so strong.

And I admire you,
Your courage to fight,
I know I'm angry,
That you fell that night.

But I know it's not your fault,
And you couldn't live anymore,
I'm not mad at you,
Just mad that you knocked on heavens door.

I wish you were here,
But it just can't be,
I may not show it,
But I can feel you look down on me

And I need you to know,
That I still give you love,
Even though you have slipped,
And now sit above.

When I read the poem, I thought you had your doggie in mind.
It really hurts to lose a pet.
