You're Not There

The thud if Milo's knees hitting the dirt echoed throughout the silent field,tears blurring the boys vision until the writing in the stone was barley legible.
"I only got you in my stories and you know I tell them right. I remember you and I, when I'm awake at night." He began to sing,voice cracking as he lay a hand atop the freshly dug soil.
"So give it up for fallen glory. I never got to say goodbye. I wish I could ask for just a bit more time.
Every step I take, you used to lead the way, now I'm terrified to face it on my own." He ran his other hand through his hair in a weak attempt to brush it from his eyes like Ash would do when it fell into his face from giggling or messing around with her.
"You're not there to celebrate the man that you made. You're not there to share in my success and mistakes. Is it fair? You'll never know the person I'll be. You're not there with me." A sob wracked through his body,causing him to flop over,his forehead resting on his knees.
"Though I know that you're not there. I still write you all these songs. It's like, you still got the right to know what's going on. As I struggle to remember how you used to look and sound, sometimes I still think I can spot you in the crowd." Another sob, words seeming to be choked out rather than sung,but they still kept their melody,not once turning into a mess of sounds and phrases.
"Every step I take, you used to lead the way,now I'm terrified to face it on my own. You're not there to celebrate the man that you made. You're not there to share in my my success and mistakes. Is it fair?
You'll never know the person I'll be.
You're not there,with me." Milo crying slowed a little and he wiped his face,trying to put back up the mask he used for everyone else,though his efforts were wasted.
"Time can heal your wounds if you're strong and standing tall. I've been doing all of that, it didn't help at all. They say you'll grow older, and it'll get better still. Yes, I will, but no it won't, they don't get it, 'cause you're not there." He grasped onto his shirts sleeve tugging them up and ripping of the bandages to reveal the almost fully healed cuts,much of what was left being scars. A light smile was sent their way as he sang.
"To celebrate the man that you made. You're not there to share in my my success and mistakes. Is it fair? You'll never know the person I'll be. You're not there with me." Sitting up Milo pulled his sleeves back down,ran his hand through his hair once more before standing up,whispering a small "Love you." to the grave and heading away, chin tucked into the collar of his shirt.

Would you look at this. Another late night piece from a non-sleeping human! Hope you people reading these actually enjoy these and I'm not writing like a crazy person. Also if you have any songs you'd like me to do,for any charactar or a made up one from my demented brain,just message me! Peace out
