When you first came here,
I didn't like you at all.
I was scared of you.
You were so tiny, yet I feared you.
But time passed,
You slowly grew up,
And I got used to you.
Until I finally got attached to you

I wake up every morning,
And see you laying on the couch
Under the sunlight.
It was funny how you kept
Going to the same spot
Every single morning.
When I use my phone,
You would sit beside me and sleep.

Who would have thought,
That those months
Would be so hard to forget,
That even two years can't erase?
It's been two years since we lost you.
I remember that certain day.
I saw how you fought for your life.
I saw how you struggled.

You kept fighting.
The entire day was a never ending
Battle between life and death.
It was a cycle of you slowly dying and getting revived.
I kept praying,
Hoping that you would survive.
Hoping that everything will be fine
Because that was all I could do

I kept holding my tears,
Watching you as you lay there,
Slowly losing your life
And struggling to live.
I couldn't bear it.
It was too painful to see you suffer.
All I could do was silently cry alone
And smile in front of you.

But the moment I closed my eyes,
The moment I went to sleep,
That was when you left.
And when I woke up, you were dead and gone.
I didn't cry then, but I was broken inside.
Days kept going by and the more I missed you.
Everything would remind me of you.
Your presence was everywhere.

I kept hoping
That it was all a nightmare.
And that I would wake up
And see you again.
But this is reality
And not some fantasy.
You're gone.
And there's nothing I could do.

I kept making myself believe
That I moved on.
But even the mere mention
Of your name makes me cry.
Sometimes, I wished that
I never met you
That way, it would hurt
When I lost you

I kept crying.
I

kept missing you.
I kept remembering you.
I looked fine,
But I was not.
It was like a part of me was gone.
It was as if you took a pice of me
With you when you died.

And I swore to never love
Another one of your kind.
Because your life if too short
Compared to mine.
And I can't bear to watch
Another death.
So I closed my heart
Because I didn't need another August 29.

But I'm okay now.
I still miss you,
And I'm still not ready
To love another one of your kind.
But I'm ready to let you go.
You suffered enough,
So now I'll let you go.
You can fully rest now.

In this life,
You suffered a lot of pain,
But you were happy, right?
I hope we made you happy
Throughout your life.
It was short, but those months with you
Will forever be in my memories and heart.
Until we meet again, Kasper.
