When Someone You Love Poem by Kiana Valdez

When someone you love dies
It is like someone ripped out your heart
Every single part
Of you is broken
When someone you love cries
You cry with them too
Be into their shoes
As if you were them
When someone you love laughs
It’s easy to laugh too
A joke, a riddle, and a pun or two
It really easy to laugh
When someone you love dances
You dance along
Even if no song
Is playing
The truth is we need the people we love
Around us all times
To help us dance, laugh, cry, and also
To be there when someone else you love dies
