Dear Jasper

Dear Jasper. You’ll be waiting at the crack of dawn, You’ll be waiting even though you know I'm gone. When you look up and they see your sad empty face. They’ll realize this was never your place. Parts of me still linger behind, To muse the times you were mine.  I miss you everyday, I remember how we used to play. Now I wonder why you couldn't stay. I ponder why you ran away. Memories of us play on repeat,  August heat clears the streets, As I dream of you running back to me.
