Silently Grieving

Evan Smith

Evan Smith

Please forgive me
for not coming sooner
for not crying more
for the 2 for 1 trader Joe's flowers I put by your head.
 
Please forgive me 
for throwing away your knick-knacks
for being afraid of the bones through your skin
for crying too much.
 
Please forgive me
for wearing your clothes
for hanging your ornaments
for laughing at them.
 
Please forgive me.
