We were writing sonnets in Creative Writing, and this is far from a perfect sonnet, but it's the first poem I've ever written that I actually loved, even though I was crying the entire time I wrote it. We've been stuck in winter for a while now And that's true in more ways than one I want to fix this but I don't know how And now the fight for your life is almost done I've been hoping and praying for spring But it feels like there's no end in sight And it's hard to believe you're leaving It feels like we'll never see the light I don't know how to say goodbye I never thought it would end like this How do you accept that someone you love will die? There's so much I haven't done yet that you'll miss I'm not good with things that I can't mend And I know what they say about all good things, but I never thought that you'd end
