Poem Commentary

for andrew, my ex-next-door-neighbor. they got mixed up and divorced and screwed up and they moved. theyre gone. i loved them so much. he was a year above me, and i loved him.

I Miss You

Many a night
I lay in bed
listening to music.
The meaningful lyrics,
the guitar softly strumming,
the drums keeping a steady beat.
The music
that reminds me of you.
 I reminisce
not knowing
whether to laugh
or to cry.
I cling pitifully to
the memories I have kept.
The conversation
that I have stolen.
And I remember.
I miss you.
I miss hearing your laugh.
And glancing behind me
and knowing you are there.
I miss your obsession with zombies.
And your insane love for video games
I miss your happy-go-lucky attitude.
And the compassion you have for your brothers.
I miss spending late nights next door at your house,
watching movies, playing games.
And not going back home til late.
I miss the things that make you who you are.
Like your dogs.
Or banana popsicles.
Or a glance from one of my friends,
casually directed towards you.
I miss the things that remind me of you.
Like swimming in the pool.
Or long road trips.
Or spending the day in my pajamas
like you always would.

I miss you.

thanks ., and i hope we do :)

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
