I cry easily

riding in the car

on my never ending commute to work

the music brings memories

makes me remember days and people gone by

they still seem so close to me

in the song’s lyrics

in my head of dreams

there is a soft, sensitive side of me

that I hide least I be hurt

today driving in

I missed the old days

I missed my sister

How could you have gone and left me here

to deal with mom all alone?

You were the one that was responsible

You took care of things

But I must say

your dying has made me

a better person

Couldn’t I have just taken

a self-improvement course?
