I Love You

I stared at your casket blankly
Sitting there in my seat
I heard whispers around me

"Look at her. She isn't even crying.
How can she have loved him?
Did she even care that he was dying?"

Whatever. They didn't understand.
I was torn apart inside.
I missed being able to hold your hand.

It was my turn to go up
And show my respect to you.
I started remembering our first 'Sup

The tears started falling
The whispers stopped
I quietly started walking

My foot steps were heard loudly
As I reached your casket
I got down on my knees quietly

I leaned against your casket, holding your hand
Tear drops rolling down my cheeks slowly
As you were off to a far off land

Wishing you weren't gone
I choke out, "I miss you so much."
Not wanting to move on

As I looked at your lifeless body, one last time
I laid one last kiss
Thanking God for making you mine

As I turned around and walked away
All eyes were on me
But no one had anything left to say

As your casket was was carried outside
I stared at the rose in my hand
I started dying inside

I dropped the rose into your casket
As it was lowered down
And I was seeing visions of when we first met

I turned around and walked away
Again, all eyes were on me
I turned around, having one more thing to say

"I love you."
