death

the thing that i hate about death is the fact that you never get to see the person again. why is it that they have to vanish completely from our sight? i know they're around in some other form but once in a while i'd like to see them...maybe hear their voice again. and then i feel like shit for all the times i was too busy to talk to them or spend time with them or just didn't feel like dealing with whatever pettty thing it was i felt i was dealing with.

for all of our technological and medical progress and breakthru's you would've thought by now that someone would've figured how to innovate the whole death process. maybe there should be someone selling memory packages...videos and sound recording of family members and friends, maybe a hologram of the person just so you could see them instead of replaying what they looked like when they died over and over again in your head cuz that was the last time you saw them.

and maybe if you could just see them ever so often it wouldn't hurt so much every time you think of the fact that you'll never ever see them again or hear their voice or the touch of their hand or anything.

everyone says they can feel the person around them...their spirit. i don't. or at least i haven't yet.

hello? are you out there?
