Do You miss Us?

Folder: 
Tell Me Why

I don't know where you live now

Or even what you look like anymore. 
But I know where we keep your photo albums and DVDs of your football games. 
 
Do you miss us? 
That is what I really want to know. 
Do you miss being able to laugh and play rummy with us? 
We haven't played since you left.
Do you miss mommy's cooking or her hug even when you pretended you didn't want it? 
 
What does it feel like to no longer live with us? 
Do you ever wonder about me or Toby of Gabrielle? 
We were your only siblings for so long.
 
Do you feel like you abandoned us, or do you think you made the right move? 
Do you cry when you are forced to write about the family you had for three years? 
 
He hasn't stopped drinking, if you are listening to this.
Gabrielle, Toby and I miss you like crazy.
I still write poetry and Gabrielle plays soccer like no one else exists. Toby rocks the violin like a newborn child and plays like a superstar. 
Mommy has almost finished school and her office is your old room. She is doing this for you, even though you are gone. 
 
We miss you.
