each year, you return to me
to my mind
a well-meaning tease
for i have no memories to cherish
how can you have memories
of someone who never lived
all i can do is play with you
or what i imagined you would become
running and laughing inside my head
your face, so normal
not blue, not spattered with chunks of flesh
dried and ready to fall
your skull in one piece
just a happy, normal boy
with a future to look forward to
with a life to live
but, how long can one hide from reality
how long can i forget that it's all a dream
how many times will i forget
how much it hurts to remember
i can't say i miss you
because i never knew you
but i miss the piece of me
that died with you
i miss looking forward to having a little brother
i miss wondering what you'll be like
i miss the love that i had saved for you
i miss what i was before
i'm sorry that you never had a chance
i'm sorry
i'm sorry
