wrong

you shouldn't have to be sad
to be you.

i know all of it is real
and whoever you are,
you are someplace else,
and i won't find you.

they are wrong about everything,
especially about what they've lost
by killing you.

wrong especially about what they've lost-

that if one person is happier than another person
kill them? wrong about that. or healthier,
or not suffering,
or whatever they see.

they don't know anything
they don't know progress
they don't know acceptance
they don't know success
they don't know change.

everything you and i know
is nothing to them

time passes,
every day without a life,
they did kill you,
the time does not come back.

they're wrong about what they've lost.
