Tommy

Time flows through,
Like sand in a sieve,
Years go by,
Months come with change,
But I never will.
The house looks the same,
Your room as you left it,
The day I lost you feels like yesterday,
But I still don’t believe it.
I think of the times you ran through the house,
Giggling for unknown reasons,
I never thought you would be gone,
If I had the chance,
I would have bought you that lolli-pop or that toy car.
But I took you for granted.
I can still hear you small feet around the house,
If I had the chance I wouldn’t have let you run out that door,
But I can’t change things.
I wish I could.
