ill never get over losing you

was going to leave already when itchy fingers me decided to read my archives for fun. and boy luckily im alone in the office. tears fell as i read the entry for my aunt. i still miss her alot. like really alot. i wish she was here when my cousin permed her hair. when my cousin started poly. when my cousin got her first B in maths. when my cousin jumped to me excitedly and told me she wants to watch spongebob squarepants. i wish she was here when we ate out first family dinner outside. the first one without her. felt weird to have no one asking me whether i want more rice. i wish she was there during mothers day when i bought her the carnation.

bout a mth ago when i went to give my cousin tuition, i needed to use the toilet which the nearest one was the one in her room. as i gingerly walked in, i tried to stop myself from looking at the big empty bed which she laid on most of the time for the past year. but i did. i remember how she told me there her daughters have had enough of this whole sickness. and how she tried so hard to catch her breath and how she vomitted after. i remember how her frail body would be propped against the left side of the bed where the water dispenser and the breathing aid would be next to her.

i still remember. and ill never forget.

i still miss u. are u listening to us up there?

i love u.
