I never met you
Only the tick of a clock
But I know you
The body made you ill
It put us in shock
Knowing I never truly met you
The doctors said take this pill
While death continues to knock
As I learn to know you
My world mirrors an oil spill
Feeling like I’m drinking hemlock
Now that I never met you
But here you lie still
The closed door holding a lock
Crying now that I know you
I fall down the hill
The loss hitting like a rock
I never met you
But I know you
