Truly Dead

Karyn Indursky

I just want
to hear from him.
I want to feel
his presence,
his love,
his hug,
his comfort,
his strength,
his everything again.
I want to crawl
into his arms,
nestle my head on his shoulder,
and just cry.
I want to tell him everything.
I want him to know how much I've changed.
I want him to see how I've changed.
I want him to know where I'm at.
I want him to realize
the depth of my love and devotion
to his memories.
I want him to know
I still care and think of him.
It matters not who I'm with
or what I'm doing
or what I want to do
or what I want to become.
He's always in my heart
and, for that reason,
he will never be truly dead.
