It is already October
I don’t want November to come
I can’t believe I’m here
I have good days, then some
Some are just ok
Others I don’t know what to do
Sometimes I just feel lost
But everyday I’m missing you
I know that I really should
be over it by now
but I can’t seem to move on
I just don’t know how
Grief they say
takes a long time for some
It is already October
I don’t want November to come
Author notes
I wrote this in 2006 coming on the first anniversary of my best friends death. It will be three years this year and I still feel the same as I did that first year.

A lovely haunting theme in this write. I know this feeling; it is very deep. I lost my Dad in November, and I hate to see it come around each year. My condolences on your loss.

This puts me in mind of the grief brought on by darkening days (SADD) and how we so dread the loss of light.
Very sorry about your friend.
