I care

She passed on this day

Thirty-six years ago

I will remind no one

Only I seem to care

 

She let go on purpose

Testing them forever

Perhaps this time will work

Only I seem to care

 

Buried in a silver can

Their grief withheld

Maybe later they will sob

Only I seem to care

 

I wanted you to know

As a witness to my loss

And to tell her once more

Only I seem to care
