How to say hello to a deceased friend
online via Facebook through Memories
when you neglected to respond in time.
Touching, how quaint, you realize they're gone,
only now, feelings of regret build up.
So sweet, a heartless bastard like yourself
admits you were too busy to reply,
yet you were shocked about the accident.
"Hi!" was all they posted on your newsfeed,
even to take a moment to say "hi",
letting them know you acknowledge their post,
letting them feel recognition from you,
only that was too much so long ago.
Tragic how she died after her release,
only two days later someone posted.
Ask yourself, if you could go back, would you?
Drowning yourself in spirits won't help much,
easing the pain with painkillers, no good,
creating a Facebook page for dead friends...
exactly how creepy is that really,
addressing the problem, your loss as real,
saying out loud to someone else, it hurts,
engaging with people in the real world,
damage control to Mr. Gabidar.
Friends come once in a lifetime, then they're gone,
rest assured, nothing you can do to change
internal systems of defense but work
energetically to salvage your ship,
no one minds you simply don't care, polite,
decent people leave you alone to grow.
